Call for Proposals ATA Teaching and Curriculum Conference

Submissions are now Closed

The sixth annual ATA Teaching and Curriculum Conference will be held on February 27, 2020 prior to the ATA Midyear meeting in Fort Worth, TX. The planning committee is soliciting proposals for a session where faculty can “pitch” tax teaching tips and techniques. This session will feature a number of teaching ideas that can each be shared, including related materials, illustrations, instructions, etc., in a relatively short – 3 – 4 minute - presentation. Presenters will participate in round table discussions about their proposal after the presentation. If you have developed a unique exercise, case, active learning exercise, online tool, or other pedagogical innovation you’d like to share, this session is for you!

YOUR PROPOSAL DOES NOT NEED TO BE A FULL PAPER OR CASE STUDY to participate in the conference. Teaching ideas and strategies are welcome! Proposals related to any and all substantive and pedagogical issues are welcome. Ideas related to the following would be particularly interesting.

• Tips for incorporating practice into your class
• Tips for integrating tax research into a non-research class
• Cases or problems for incorporating data analytics into tax courses of various levels
• Cases or problems for incorporating international issues into tax courses of various levels
• Tips for enhancing student interest in taxation
• Tips for incorporating tax policy into your class

Proposals should include a brief (1-2 page) description of the idea.

Submissions must be completed by October 25, 2019.

Authors of accepted submissions will be expected to attend the Conference and fulfill their responsibilities for the session for which their submission is accepted.
