Call for Proposals Now Open! Join us for the 2025 APSA Teaching & Learning Conference in Alexandria, VA, “Teaching Political Science Matters.” The conference will take place February 7-9, 2025, in Alexandria, Virginia.

How can we reconsider and reimagine our own programs, curriculum, and pedagogy?  Higher education has changed dramatically in the past couple of decades and yet the importance and value of a political science education has never been more apparent: we must teach how politics works and the importance of democratic values and civic engagement; we must teach our students how to be successful if they continue with graduate education; we must teach the skills necessary for entering the workforce. 

We welcome proposals from educators at all levels who teach political science and related subjects—university faculty and administrators, high school teachers, graduate students, research scholars, and others. The conference provides a forum for scholars to participate in the scholarship of teaching and learning, share pedagogical techniques, and discuss trends in political science education.

The deadline to submit proposals is September 25, 2024 11:59 p.m. PDT.
