AECT uses Oxford Abstracts, an online submission system, to manage abstracts for consideration. Please follow the steps below to create your Oxford Abstracts account and submit your paper.
Step 1: Create an Oxford Abstracts account
1) Create an Oxford Abstracts account with your email address (please use your institution email address) and a password.

Please note:
If you do not complete all required fields, your submission will be 'incomplete' and will not be considered. In this instance you will receive an email letting you know that your submission is incomplete, and you will have until the submission deadline (March 31, 2024) to complete the submission. Deadline is extended to April 5!
How do I know if my submission is complete and will be considered?
You will receive a confirmation email called 'AECT Convention 2024 Submission Confirmation' to the email address connected to your Oxford Abstracts account when your submission is complete.
If you receive an email called 'AECT Convention 2024 Incomplete Submission - Action Required' then you must log back into your Oxford Abstracts account to fill in all required fields in the form and then complete your submission.
