NCKP 2023: The Piano Conference

Share. Engage. Inspire.

Call for E-Poster Proposals


NCKP 2023 seeks e-poster presentations from educators, researchers, and performers, and encourages proposals from emerging professionals and students. E-posters can include topics related to general pedagogy or those based upon research. 

The e-poster platform provides a dynamic opportunity to share rich, multi-media content including videos, audio, links, documents, images, and interactive polls. Presenters will have the opportunity to share their poster and engage with attendees during the in person conference or during the online event.

Awards will be presented to the best pedagogy and best research e-poster. See the NCKP 2021 awards for e-posters, research and pedagogy.

E-Poster Proposal Requirements

  • Preferred modality of the poster presentation (i.e. live sharing time and discussion): online or in person.
  • An abstract of the poster not to exceed 350 words.
