Evidence-Based Teaching & Learning
At ITLC Lilly Conferences we promote evidence-based teaching and learning.
All proposals undergo blind peer review. Not all presentations are based on original research or SoTL projects, but all are supported by a strong pedagogical foundation.
​
Presenters vs. Authors
ITLC Lilly conference makes a distinction between presenters and authors. Presenters who register for the conference and present the session are listed in conference materials; authorship is credited by the presenter within the session.​
