The planning process for holding a conference should begin early.A chairperson is selected to make the plan.Various committees are formed, with members in charge of specific activities.These committees generally consist of Conference Organizing Committee and Conference Academic Committee.The committees are then to work out a general program, including a call for papers, which is to notify the prospective participants of the conference.Format of call for conference papers

The agenda lists the order of business for a meeting.If it is short with few decisions to be made, it can be incorporated into the minutes*(an official written record of what is discussed or decided at a formal meeting).If it is long with many points to be discussed and acted on, the agenda may be omitted and a program may take the place.The following style is adopted: a wide column at the left for the point to be discussed, and a narrower column at the right for the person or body responsible for carrying out any action decided on.The points are numbered and may be given subject headings.Format of agenda ☺ Call to order by the presiding officer ☺ Roll call ☺ Announcement of quorum ☺ Reading and adoption of agenda ☺ Reading and adoption of the minutes of the previous meeting ☺ Approval of the minutes of the previous meeting ☺ Related matters ☺ Unfinished business ☺ Appointments and removal ☺ Nomination and elections ☺ Adjournments
A conference program acts as a guide as well as a plan for the participants.It lists a series of activities to be done at a definite time and place.It helps participants fulfill their activities in accordance with its plan.Usually it contains the following information: time, date, activities, venue, and people involved.When the academic committee has decided which participants to admit after an anonymous review of their abstract or papers, the program should be prepared and distributed to all the participants.Format of programs ☺ Time ☺ Venue ☺ Programs to be discussed

第二篇:国际学术英语交流会议总结
I learned a lot from this simulated international conference on academic exchange , also we have some shortcomings.At first, about the title of the graduate education reform , we choose the topic is the graduate tutor system reform.Although the subject is good, the scope is too large, and two knotespeakers have on their own topic.In addition, about the content of the international conference, without the whole meeting schedule, in other words, without a meeting outline, so made our conference process is not perfect.At last but the least , about the simulation fidelity, if we pay more attention on the appearance, speech words,then the simulation can be called perfect.

第四篇:国际英语交流panldiscussion-1
My topic is “speaking a lot or doing a lot”.The approvals hold the opinion of doing a lot,insisting that actions exceed arguments and it may look like superfical if we speak too much.While the disapprovals don’t agree.They think speaking a lot is essential as to improing the communication skills.Communication is of great significance in the high pacesociety.In the following time,the approvals come up with an idea that if someone speaks a lot,he is more likely to be a salesman,which is a position with high salaries but entails even more efforts.Of course,the other side don’t stand by,pointing that speaking a lot can be a critical factor in increasing working efficiency.Because you can make your confusion known by others in the team so that they can help you out.The debate is carried on like a raging fire and everyone is immersed in the fierce discussion.They spare no efforts to refute the protesters.The approvals cite on an example to prove their viewpoint that when preparing a supersize to girlfriend the boyfriend had better do it without informing her girlfriend in advance.But the disapprovals laugh exceeding their expectations “don’t you know that many girls actually dislike the girfs presented this way?and in majority situation the high priced gifts stay lonely in the corner till the end.It’s a waste of money.”So letting you thoughs known before putting it into action tends to be better.At the end of the discussion,I asked one of them,if she viewed herself as a girl of too much talking.She said yes.Then I asked the others if they liked this girl.They confessed too.Why? From my point of view,it may due to the fact that this girl not only speak a lot but also do a lot.That’t to say,wo need both speaking and action in order to live better.There is a trade-off between the advantages and disadvantages.
