Dear Janpha Thadphoothon,


Thank you for presenting at the Extensive Reading Around the World conference next month. I hope your preparations are going well. This email has reminders and other important information for you to consider.


Video and Zoom

If you have not already, please fill in this form to 1) let us know if you give permission to record your session, 2) inform us of your level of experience on zoom and whether you can help hosting zoom sessions, and 3) upload any video files you have.

https://forms.gle/DTYdqoU7ik4bcAESA (If you cannot use this form, please send an email to eraw2021@gmail.com with the information.)


We would like to invite all presenters to make a promotional video for your session. This could just be a short introduction, which may help us publicise the conference and your presentation. If you have a video for your session, either a promotional video or a pre-recorded video of your presentation, please upload this via the same form: https://forms.gle/DTYdqoU7ik4bcAESA

We prefer you to send the vidoe or a link to a cloud version, for example on Google Drive.


You can find some guidelines for making videos here:

Pre-recorded Presentations

We are planning to make the pre-recorded video presentations available before the conference.

During the conference, Q and A sessions have been scheduled for these presentations. During Q and A sessions, video presenters will have a couple of minutes to introduce themselves to the conference attendees, then they can join a breakout room to answer specific questions, give more information, or chat with other attendees.

If your session is labelled “Recorded Presenter Q and A”, we are expecting you to send a video.


Video deadlines:

19th July for pre-recorded video presentations.

4th August for optional promotional videos.

If you have trouble meeting these deadlines, please email eraw2021@gmail.com.


Other presentation information

It’s possible to add images, pdfs or more information to your session see https://eraw2021.eventzil.la/pages/200


Discord

We plan to use a Discord server as another way to communicate during the conference and continue to develop the community of Extensive Reading Around the World. Please join: https://discord.gg/nsWBYNzDbV


Publicity

Please share the link to your session to help publicize it. (Go to your session page and copy the URL. The URL will look something like this: https://eraw2021.eventzil.la/session/1685)


If you use Twitter, please promote the conference with the hashtag: #eraw2021.
