The Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication (AEJMC) is promoting the upcoming 2010 Denver Conference August 4-7 at the Sheraton Denver Downtown Hotel in Denver, Colorado, with the launch of a new conference website, http://www.AEJMCDenver.org.
The new website utilizes the latest blogging software and new media tools available to help attendees keep in touch with people and events throughout the four-day conference. The new website will showcase complete conference coverage and help attendees:
- learn about news and sessions by day of the week and by topic;
- connect with fellow attendees and add events through message boards;
- find information about travel accommodations, including dining and nightlife;
- keep up-to-date with available marketing of books, products and services.
The 2010 AEJMC Denver Conference will feature sessions
and panels on the latest research, teaching issues and public service
in the various areas of journalism and mass communication.
Attendees will meet face-to-face with more than 1,600 journalism and mass
communication educators; learn how to navigate the evolving job market
and meet one-on-one with recruiters; and discover a great avenue to
explore potential text and other resources.

administrators, educators, and researchers; well-known authors and
publishers of communication texts; companies and organizations tracking
