VDMIS CALL FOR PAPERS

As always, we warmly encourage you to submit an article to Video News. You can report on activities using video, digital media, art, or music you have had success with in the classroom.

Reminders:

• One to two pages long (around 1,000 words)
• Send your head shot photo (format .jpg) in a separate file as well; we really want to know you
• Send your file in Word format (.doc or .docx).
• Include a biography of each contributor/presenter
• Include a teaser: a one- to two-sentence general blurb about your article or report to entice the reader to go on to find your article and enjoy it

Ideally, we are aiming for one issue in June/July and one in December/January. If sufficient submissions are received, there could be another in February/March. It would also be appreciated if you let us know which issue you intend to aim for.
