Call for Papers and Presentations
The 13th Northeastern Recreation Research Symposium
April 1-3, 2001
Held at the historic island resort, The Sagamore, the Northeastern Recreation Research (NERR) Symposium offers you an unparalleled opportunity to exchange information with other recreation, tourism, and resource managers, planners and researchers.
The purpose of the NERR Symposium is to provide a regional forum for individuals representing the governmental, educational and private sectors to share scientific knowledge and positively influence the recreation profession.
There are four types of presentation formats: paper and poster presentations, management presentations, and roundtable discussions. Paper and poster presentations are considered equal in terms of expected scholarly quality. At their core, management and roundtable discussions should have a focus on application.
| Research paper presentation: | A 15-minute presentation followed by 5 minutes of discussion. |
| Poster presentation: | A 60-minute session during which time authors must be available for questions and discussion. |
| Management presentation: | A 90-minute session focusing on current recreation management issues. |
| Roundtable discussion: | A 60 to 90-minute informal session that initiates discussion of timely and controversial topics. |
The following are examples of topical areas. However, we welcome and encourage presentations on other areas of recreation research and management.
| · Natural resource management | · Historical/cultural resource management |
| · Emerging and existing trends | · Measurement and forecasting |
| · Travel and tourism | · Sustainable tourism |
| · Human dimensions | · Policy development and planning |
