Hello Colleagues,
I write with a reminder to submit an abstract to present at ATTW 2025: Technical and Professional Communication in the Global Election Supercycle. Full invite at www.attw.org
The 2025 ATTW hybrid conference will take place on June 14-15, 2025 virtually online and in person at Missouri University of Science and Technology. We invite 500-word (exclusive of references) abstracts proposing either a virtual or an in-person presentation examining technical communication in the global election supercycle of 2024 and its aftermath.
We welcome submissions that critically analyze the roles played by technologies, genres, and information processes in shaping democratic discourse, voter participation, electoral integrity, political messaging, and more. Please submit your abstracts to attwcon by December 31st, 2024. Teachers, scholars, researchers, and practitioners working at secondary schools, community two-year colleges, public and private universities, for-profit corporations, non-profit organizations, and government agencies are encouraged to submit.
All submissions that are received by the deadline will be fully considered for inclusion in the conference whether or not the submission is connected to the conference theme. For planning purposes and to take full advantage of the virtual medium, authors must specify if they intend to present online or in-person at the time of submission. We expect to return decisions to authors by February 15th and publish a draft of the schedule by March 15th.
Finally, please consider being a peer reviewer for the conference by filling out this interest form: https://forms.gle/yZrAwuwrrotHNWdA6

If you have any questions, please reach out to co-conference Chair and site host Dr. Ryan Cheek (ryancheek), ATTW Vice President and co-conference Chair Dr. Isidore Dorpenyo (idorpenyo), or ATTW President Dr. Laura Gonzales (gonzalesl).
