Attendees will be able to choose from a variety of moderated roundtable discussions related to textbook or academic authoring. Roundtable Discussions are 30-minute discussions of a specific topic led by a moderator. Each discussion may have up to 10 participants. 

How Roundtable Discussions will work
Roundtable Discussions will be held in conjunction with a lunch on Friday, June 26, 12 p.m. to 1 p.m. A board will be set up outside the general meeting room containing a map of the Roundtable Discussions. Write your name on a seat at the table that will be discussing the topic of your choice.  Enjoy your lunch for the first 30 minutes and then begin your discussion. At the end of 30 minutes, you will have the option of staying where you are or moving to a different Roundtable Discussion.
