 NACRA
2010 Annual Meeting Call for Cases
Eligible Cases
Cases may deal with any topic in any academic discipline where dynamic
classroom discussion is useful. Cases must be original work based on
real events, real people, and real organizations, and must not have
been previously published or accepted for publication elsewhere, either
in journals or books. Submitted cases may also not be under simultaneous
review for other conferences or publications. Cases presented in other
workshops may be submitted only if they have been substantially revised
since that presentation; authors should describe the case’s previous
history in their submittal letter.
Typically, cases are submitted in most of the business functional
areas. But cases are invited and encouraged from other areas and
disciples, including but not limited to education, social work,
and healthcare issues (e.g., management, ethics, policy). If you
not sure which track chair to submit
your case to, then please contact Jeff
Shay and provide him with a brief one paragraph description of
your case.
Author Responsibility to Participate
If accepted, the submission must be presented. In consideration of
having a submission reviewed for the conference, you are committing
to having at least one author attend and participate in the roundtable
discussions or paper/symposia presentation.
Each case must be presented by at least one author who participates
in both the Friday and Saturday morning roundtable sessions. Also,
no more than two cases may be presented in the same track by the same
author.
Submission Instructions
This year NACRA is transitioning to an online case submission
process using a platform called ScholarOne. This will increase
our submission and review process efficiency and make it much easier
for authors, reviewers, track chairs, etc. Authors should submit
their case(s) by Monday, June 14, 2010 to be considered for participation
in conference. Create your account NOW!!!
To get started, you’ll need to create an account
on ScholarONE by following these simple steps:
- Go to http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/nacra2010
- Click on “Create Account” located in the upper
right-hand corner of the site
- Complete (at minimum) the required fields on Steps 1 and 2.
- When you get to step 3, provide a password for your account.
Additionally, indicate the track(s) that you would like to
be considered as a reviewer.
- Click Finish
You can establish an account prior to submitting
your case if you would like. ScholarOne has a support staff ready
to assist you if you need any help.
Case Embryos
New case researchers may submit regular
“case embryos” – ideas for cases still under
development
– for feedback from experienced case authors. See the Newcomer's
Guide for more information if this is your first time with
NACRA. Fill out the embryo
case submission form (PDF)
and send it to Vijaya Narapareddy by
September 1, 2010. These cases will be presented on Thursday afternoon,
October
28.

If your case is accepted, please review these
