Submission Policy

​

• Individuals can submit up to three abstracts across all submission types (single paper presentation, symposium, poster presentation) as a speaker (or chair + speaker for a symposium). There is no limitation in participation as discussant in a symposium or co-author across all submission types.

• All speakers (presenting authors, chairs and discussants) should be paid registrants of the conference.

• Abstracts can only be submitted via the online abstract submission system. (https://www.openconf.org/aasp2023eduhk/)

• For symposium submissions, the Symposium Chair should integrate all presentations of the symposium into one submission. A Chair can also be a presentation speaker.

• To withdraw submitted abstracts, contact authors can click on "Withdraw submission" at the online abstract submission webpage, or contact the AASP2023 Secretariat (eduhk-aasp2023@eduhk.hk).

• Live Hybrid Mode: At submission time, the mode of presentation (online or in-person) does not need to be decided. At time of registration (mid-April; please check website for registration deadline), presenters can decide if they will opt for online-only or in-person presentation. Note that while we will try to make reasonable accommodations for online presenters in other time zones, presenters should be prepared to present “live” during the conference presentation programme, Hong Kong time, 9am-6pm, July 13-15.

 

Submission Types

​

• Symposium: A symposium is a 60-minute session (subject to change depending on the number of submissions) consisting of three to four individual presentations. One or two discussant(s) can also be included. The Symposium Chair is encouraged to invite presenters from different institutions, and preferably from different nations. Should the submitted symposium not be accepted, participating authors may be offered the option to contribute a poster presentation instead. Symposia can include a mix of online and in-person speakers.

• Single paper presentation: Single paper submissions allow the accepted authors to give a 12-15-minute oral presentation of their research at the conference. The Scientific Committee will review and group single paper submissions into paper sessions, each of which will include three to four presentations. Single paper submissions will also be considered for poster presentation unless authors opt not to be. Presenters may be online or in-person.

• Poster presentation: Poster presentations provide interactive discussion between presenters and attendees. Thus, authors should be present at the poster session during the designated time. Both online (on Gathertown) and in-person sessions will be offered.
