There will be standard celeration chart projects on easels in poster session format to prompt discussion, feedback, and new ideas. We'll be touting our new Behavioral Entrepreneurs special interest group, the expanded forums and resources on our new web site, and opportunities for getting involved in the revitalized Standard Celeration Society. The gathering will also reflect expansion of the SCS from a focus on educational applications to OBM, self-management, and other areas where precise measurement of performance and change over time provides added precision and power to behavioral methods and data-based decision making.
