The Call for Proposals is open for the 2025 MATSOL Conference. We invite proposals to present at the in-person conference from May 28-30, 2025 in Framingham MA.
Proposals deadline: January 15, 2025 11:59 pm
The 2025 MATSOL Conference brings together educators of English Learners from across the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. MATSOL encourages engaging, interactive presentations that make the theory to practice connection. Successful proposals include practical classroom activities informed by current research and pedagogy, demonstrations of successful instructional practices, examinations of current issues in education, and research that informs educators in the Massachusetts context. Presentations should engage the audience through hands-on or interactive activities when possible.
In alignment with our mission to promote equity and excellence for English learners, MATSOL encourages submission of proposals that show a strong commitment to racial justice, diversity, equity, and inclusion. To reflect this goal, MATSOL has a section in the proposal to explain how the presentation will address racial justice and/or culturally responsive teaching.
In 2025, MATSOL is offering a hybrid conference format: All presentations will be made in-person and selected presentations will be streamed live for virtual viewing. Presenters must submit proposals for in-person presentations and may be invited to present in one of the live-stream rooms.
