Roundtables

exciting, interactive discussions on historical, pedagogical, political, or professional issues. Unlike panel presentations, roundtable presenters do not read written papers; instead, they share brief and focused remarks and then engage in a dynamic conversation with fellow presenters, the moderator, and the audience. 

Each roundtable begins with a brief introduction by the roundtable's moderator, proceeds to the moderated conversation between presenters, and then opens up for a broader discussion with the audience.

Timing

Sessions are 90 minutes in length.

• Each of the 4-5 presenters (in addition to the chair/moderator) should limit their individual remarks to approximately 5 minutes. 
• Cross-panel discussion should be limited to 30 minutes.
• Remainder of time devoted to audience Q&A (WAWH audiences value this time.)
