SOUTHERN CONFERENCE
Southern Conference Information
Each year, UCTE hosts an annual conference in Sandy, Utah for secondary ELA teachers across the state of Utah. The conference features a keynote speaker (often a Young Adult author, teacher educator, or other well-known practitioners in the ELA field). In addition to a keynote, the conference features presentations from local secondary teachers and university faculty.
The conference also hosts The Future Is Now, a roundtable session for undergraduate and graduate students to present ideas relating to teaching English language arts.
Lastly, awards for Teacher of the Year are presented at the annual conference to honor secondary ELA teachers at various stages in their careers.
