The Georgia State University team is excited to welcome you to the 2022 ST&D conference. Although it would have been great to see all of you in person, and show-off our city, we have faith that our presenters will provide all of us with a stimulating remote couple of days. One upside to a remote conference is that we can attend sessions in our comfy slippers!
These past few years have been quite challenging, and we would like to take a moment to honor those we know personally or through the news
who have died and/or suffered due to disease, civil unrest, war, police brutality, or other challenges. If we had met in person, we would have taken a moment of silence, so instead we are asking you to take a moment to reflect on these past few years.
The theme of our conference this year is diversity. Diversity in terms of populations (such as age, race, culture, gender), language modalities (such as vocal speech, sign language, gestures), settings (such as medical, school) content areas (such as reading, writing, text, picture), and digital modalities. Reflecting our theme, we are thrilled that Dr. Julie Washington will be presenting our Keynote Presentation, and we encourage you to read information about her and her talk later in this document.
A special congratulations are extended to Richard Gerrig and Laura Allen who were awarded the Distinguished Scientific Contribution Award (DSCA) and the Tom Trabasso Young Investigator Award in 2022. We will have wonderful presentations from Dr. Gerrig on his program of research, as well as Alex List, who was the 2021 Trabasso award winner. You can learn more about the amazing work conducted by these scholars by reading about them in this document, and by attending their keynote presentations.
As you know, planning for an online conference takes many people (even an online one), and I would like to thank the following people for all their help and support: Elizabeth Tighe, Jason Braasch, Scott Hinze, Jessica Scott, Joseph Magliano, Katie McCarthy, Sarah Carlson, and Mike Mensink. Please read in this document about the different tasks and roles people took on in order to make this conference a success!
