American Democracy Project 10th Annual Meeting

June 6-9 in San Antonio

June 6-9, 2012
The American Democracy project (ADP) will be hosting their 10th annual national meeting and The Democracy Commitment’s (TDC) 2nd annual national meeting at the Marriott Rivercenter in San Antonio, Texas.

This year’s theme, Civic Engagement 2.0: Re-Imagining, Strengthening and deepening Our Civic Work, is inspired by web 2.0 applications (e.g., social media, blogs, Wikis) that inspire collaboration, information haring, and user-centered design. The theme poses the following set of questions:
How can we make existing civic education and engagement efforts more student and citizen centered? What can we do to make ADP and TDC more interactive, participative and discovery driven? How can we harness new technologies to engage more students and/or to make our teaching and programming more effective?

Expect approximately 350 attendees, including provosts, other administrators, faculty members, students and community partners. The conference structure includes four plenary sessions, a set of featured speaker presentations and a series of concurrent sessions with multiple presenters.
