Call for Posters

to be considered for presentation at the

2025 American Association for Agricultural Education Conference

May 19-22, 2025

Lubbock, Texas

Poster abstracts which report a completed idea, research, concept, or innovation that have not been previously reported at the National AAAE Research Conference will be considered for acceptance. All abstract submissions will be peer reviewed.

Poster abstracts must be authored or co-authored by AAAE members. If you are unsure of your membership status, you can email Marilyn Trefz (manager@aaaeonline.org) to check your membership status several weeks in advance of the submission deadline. Posters without at least one current AAAE member will be rejected.

Two poster session categories (types) will be accepted -- Innovative Idea (teaching, process and products) and Research. Innovative Idea posters must be a new idea or the creative modification of an existing idea. Research posters must be related to a problem, demonstrate a need for research, and implement the research process. Research should address the AAAE Research Values: https://aaaeonline.org/National-Research-Values. The innovative idea must be implemented, or research must be completed prior to submission.

Poster narratives in each category must be of potential regional or national significance focusing in the areas of teaching, communications, extension and/or leadership. A peer review evaluation process will be used based on the established evaluation forms.

Once accepted, authors will be notified and posters will be presented at the 2025 AAAE Conference. The top 10-reviewed posters of both poster types (i.e., innovative and research) will be eligible for People’s Choice award voting in Lubbock, Texas.
