Newswise — The Society for Nutrition Education and Behavior (SNEB) invites you to submit abstracts for presentation at the 2015 Annual Conference in Pittsburgh, PA July 25 – 28, 2015. SNEB is interested in abstracts about research, and/or programs that relate to behavior change and food choice, regardless of whether or not the desired behavior occurred. Abstracts related to this year’s conference theme: Creativity & Innovation in Nutrition Education are also encouraged. This year SNEB is also calling for abstracts in a new category: Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL). For SNEB, SoTL is the scholarly inquiry associated with teaching students in a college/university course or curriculum. Examples of SoTL may include:• Best practices associated with teaching undergraduate or graduate nutrition courses• Innovative and high impact teaching strategies (service-learning, flipped classrooms, online learning environments, study abroad, etc.)• Individual course or curriculum development• Assessment of student learning outcomesThose wishing to submit SoTL abstracts should follow the same guidelines provided for the Research and Practice abstract categories. However, when submitting your SoTL abstract, please select SoTL for the abstract category in the appropriate drop-down menu. If you have any questions about if your SoTL work fits with SNEB, please contact Suzie Goodell ([email protected]), the Higher Education Division chair.
