The call for sessions opens today, the 2nd of July, and will remain open until the 25th of July. Please follow this link to submit your session abstract. It should take you directly to the submission page. You do not have to log in to OCS to submit your session. However, in case after peer-review your session is accepted, only then will you have to register through your OCS account or create an OCS account.
There are three different session formats that you can choose from:
- Standard Session – this is your typical session that is composed of 20 minute papers presented by the participants.
- Roundtable – this is a session format where the session organizer(s) present a position paper in advance of the conference and invite participants to discuss the topic in an open format.
- Other – this is an open format that is at the discretion of the session organizer(s). The CAA International Scientific Committee encourages original new session formats to create a dynamic environment for sharing projects and ideas. We ask that the session organizer(s) include a short description of what the session format would look like. This could include sessions that have short presentations accompanied by posters or digital posters followed by an open discussion, or the session could be focused on actively solving a digital archaeology problem. It is important to stress that individuals participating in these alternative formats will still have a chance to submit a paper for inclusion in the published proceedings.
A session abstract can be no longer than 2500 characters excluding session title, author names, affiliations, and email addresses, and 3 – 5 keywords. Organizers of Other sessions are given 3500 characters to describe the session format. Please indicate the corresponding author if there is more than one organizer. Remember, the official language of the conference is English and all submissions should be in English. If English is not your first language, it is strongly recommended that you have a fluent English speaker proofread your abstract before submission.
