[Coehd] AERA DEADLINE--MARK YOUR CALENDAR!

25 May 2016 Dear Faculty, Doctoral Students, and COEHD Communities of Teachers and Learners, Last Friday, many of us in the College met with AERA leadership to discuss the forthcoming AERA Conference to be held in San Antonio, Thursday, April 27- Monday, May 1st 2017. This is the first AERA Conference ever in San Antonio and marks the first meeting in AERA's 2nd century of service in Educational research. All of this is monumental! This is a reminder that the deadline for proposals for this meeting is July 22nd 2016. The meeting theme is: Knowledge to Action: Achieving the Promise of Equal Educational Opportunity. Please check the AERA Website for guidelines for the various Divisions and SIG's. Do share this information with colleagues, including in other units at UTSA, with students, and teachers who may be interested in presenting or attending the meeting. We hope to see great participation of our UTSA Community and visibility of our contributions to Education locally and globally. We have much to be proud of. We might also use this opportunity to recruit for our masters and doctoral programs. I stand ready to help in any way that I can to see our presence felt and contributions made throughout the meeting. Respectfully yours, Rosalind Executive Committee Member, Treasurer-Secretary, SIG on Research in Reading and Literacy
