Northeast Business Teaching Excellence Conference
The inaugural Northeast Business Teaching Excellence Conference (NEBTEC) invites faculty to share their scholarship, teaching practices, and innovative ideas related to undergraduate and graduate business education. We welcome submissions in a variety of formats, including paper presentations, panel discussions, interactive workshops, and other substantive presentations.
Submissions should focus on business pedagogy, broadly defined as the methods, strategies, and practices used to enhance teaching and learning in undergraduate and graduate business education. Topics may include innovative teaching approaches, experiential and active learning, classroom engagement, assessment strategies, the integration of technology and artificial intelligence, interdisciplinary teaching, professional preparation, and other approaches that support student learning and success.
Conference sessions are intended to foster meaningful dialogue, collaboration, and the exchange of ideas among business educators. Presenters are encouraged to share not only completed scholarship and established teaching practices, but also works in progress, classroom experiments, and emerging ideas for which they would welcome feedback from colleagues.
Submission and presentation guidelines
All submissions will be reviewed by a faculty peer committee for relevance to the conference's focus on business pedagogy, clarity of the proposed presentation, and potential contribution to the exchange of teaching ideas and practices. This review process is intended to guide conference programming rather than serve as a formal scholarly peer-review process.
Accepted presenters should plan for a 30-minute presentation, including questions and discussion with attendees.
Following the conference, presentation abstracts will be published in the conference proceedings and made publicly available through an open-access repository. Presenters will also have the option to submit additional materials, such as full papers, presentation slides, teaching resources, or other supporting materials, for inclusion in the proceedings.
