New Research on Education: In collaboration with AERA
April 13-15,2009 Application Deadline: Ended The annual meeting of the American Educational Research Association brings together as many as 16,000 scholars to share and discuss the latest research on the gamut of issues in American schools and colleges. For journalists, the conference is a rich resource of data and findings to bolster local or national reporting on education. For a second year, the Institute and AERA are collaborating on a three-day Journalist Symposium that will provide journalists a guide to the best sessions and plenty of time to attend them.The 2009AERA National Meeting runs April 13 - 17, and will feature thousands of peer-reviewed sessions with the nation's top scholars on math and science education, the changing landscape of education in the suburbs, how schools build strong communities and much more. Journalists also will have an opportunity to debrief with one another and will get a chance for one-on-one discussions with some of the nation's most interesting and productive scholars. The Symposium will span three days (April 13, 14 and 15), but the journalists selected to participate will be registered for the AERA Annual Meeting and will be able to attend the entire five day event. The Hechinger Institute will cover travel expenses and two nights at one of the AERA Meeting hotels. Check this page again in December for more details and an application, or visit last year's schedule to see what the agenda may look like.
