The American Educational Research Association (AERA) is pleased to inform you that the AERA 2018 Annual Meeting Call for Submissions opened on June 1. We encourage you to consider a paper or session submission to a division, special interest group (SIG), or committee that best aligns with your research interests. The deadline for submissions is 11:59 PM, Pacific Time, on July 24. 2017.  Please share this announcement with your membership and others who might be interested in submitting a proposal.

The 2018 Annual Meeting will be held on April 13-17, 2018 in New York City. The overall theme is “The Dreams, Possibilities, and Necessity of Public Education.”

We hope that you consider a submission in response to the Call. The last Annual Meeting in New York was in 2008. We are now returning after a decade looking across and beyond the boundaries of our field, our approaches, and our assumptions to create an annual meeting that attracts diverse participants worldwide.  The theme advanced by AERA President Deborah Ball and Co-Chairs Carla O’Connor and Suzanne Wilson presses us to consider the dreams and the possibilities. The time could not be more ripe for doing so as we draw upon the best of research and explore innovative opportunities.
