Heading to AERA
I’m about to head out the door to attend this year’s American Educational Research Association in Denver, Colorado. I’ve got three presentations this year — one on Sunday, one on Monday, and one early on Tuesday — and would love to meet any readers of the blog who happen to be at the conference this year.
I’m not sure if I can link to the searchable program, but if so, follow this link to AERA’s site.
Or, just read the titles here:
