Overview

<p>The American Educational Research Association (AERA) invites proposals for conferences in education research. AERA supports research conferences intended to break new ground in substantive areas of inquiry, stimulate new lines of study on issues that have been largely unexplored, or develop innovative research methods or techniques that can contribute more generally to education research. Conferences may focus on conceptual, empirical, or methodological issues important to understanding the state of the knowledge and charting directions for future research. It is anticipated that research conferences will draw upon diverse disciplines and fields of inquiry where there is relevant scientific and scholarly expertise. The purpose of this program is to foster the accumulation of knowledge, to enhance dissemination, to encourage innovation, and to advance studies of the highest quality in education research.</p>

Solicitation Limitations: <p>The principal investigator(s) must be a member of AERA at the time of submission.</p> Other Information:<p>Research conferences may vary in size, scope, format, and structure depending on the goals and the work to be accomplished. Some conferences may take the form of intensive research workshops of 12-18 scholars or may be larger in size to include 24 or more participants. Larger research conferences are feasible if appropriate to achieving the research objectives of the Call and if appropriate resources can be identified. Depending on size, scope, and objectives, these conferences are usually two days or may span over three days. Conferences should generally take place within approximately 12 months after the funding decision is made. This initiative is not intended to fund or supplement conferences that occur on a regular basis. In addition, public lectures or conferences aimed at dissemination, broad discussion of a topic, or professional development fall outside the scope of this Call.</p>
