The 2019 AIESEP conference theme is Building Bridges for Physical Activity and Sport. Deadline for submissions: 7 January 2019

The 2019 scientific programme invites research, research applications, and theoretical presentations from multiple perspectives on physical education, sport pedagogy, physical activity and exercise for young children, youth and adults.  We hope to share our knowledge and understanding, and to build relationships, foster international and inter-professional collaborations and explore new perspectives for future endeavours.

Accepted papers will be presented in the following formats

Oral paper presentation

Individual or small group presentations (approximately 12-20 minutes), are grouped in parallel sessions with papers on comparable topics. Abstracts are rated on the clarity of research question(s) and/or focus of enquiry, quality of the research or potential research, significance for educational practice, policy or theory, and quality and clarity of writing.

If applying for an oral paper presentation please submit an abstract of 300 words.

Poster presentation

Individual or small group electronic poster presentations, accompanied by the author(s). Quality poster presentations must include a clear statement of the research, research methods, results, discussion and contribution of the presentation to the field of study and conference theme. Originality of the topic, visual design, layout, language and oral presentation are also important. 

If applying for a poster presentation please submit an abstract of 300 words.

Roundtable discussion

When submitting papers for a symposium the lead person should login and add themselves as Author 1 and the other participants in the symposium as Author 2, 3 etc. In the field ‘Title and abstract’ please type the title for the symposium and the overall abstract of 300 words first.

Abstract, etc. Preference will be given to symposia that demonstrate cohesiveness across presentations. Symposia will be accepted or rejected in total.
