Adding a session to your schedule in Sched does not guarantee you a spot in the room. Most sessions are first come, first served, there is no waitlist. On Sched you can add multiple sessions to your schedule that are at the same time. A session that is "POPULAR!" is on many attendee schedules and could be full. If a session requires pre-registration it will indicate this in the description and will provide details for how to pre-register.

Post-Convention Event Survey
If the person doing the talking is the person doing the learning, it’s no wonder second language teachers are exhausted at the end of the day! When students do get an opportunity to speak, too often it is through prepared speech or where student talk is still teacher-controlled. Explore ways to provide language learners multiple opportunities to interact in the target language with their peers. Try out a range of activities that get everyone talking at once that can be adapted for any language program (including English!) at any level with low-to-no preparation for use on Monday.

Attend either or both parts of the session.
