SIOP 2011: Schedule Planning
SIOP 2011 Coverage: Schedule Planning | Junior Faculty Consortium
Day 1 Live Blog | Day 1 Summary | Day 2/3 Live Blog | Day 2/3 Summary
Like last year, I’ll be live-blogging from the SIOP conference, which begins next Thursday. This post contains my hypothetical schedule. Of course, the events that you want to see are not always the events you end up seeing, so this is not necessarily definite.
In comparison to last year, I noticed that coverage of “technology at work” is reduced. Whether that’s because fewer people send in technology-related submissions or because the program committee was biased against such submissions (I’m not bitter!!) is unclear.
Personally, I’m on three pieces at SIOP this year, which are highlighted in the chart below. I encourage you to attend Empirical Evidence for Emerging Technology: MUVEs/Virtual Worlds in HR, a symposium I put together with Dr. Tara Behrend at George Washington University. We’ve got a fascinating line-up, including discussion on recruiting, training, and performance appraisal applications of virtual worlds (like Second Life).
