New Directions in Education: Policy, Pedagogy, and Research

We are pleased to announce the 2008 NRMERA annual conference theme, New Directions in Education: Policy, Pedagogy, and Research. We invite faculty and students to submit proposals to present and participate at the conference, which will be held in Nevada at the MontBleu Resort on the south shore of Lake Tahoe. The dates for the conference are October 9-11, 2008.

This year there will be several strands of research highlighted at the conference. First, in recognition of the need for diverse thinking in modern educational research, we are pleased to have Dr. Burke Johnson, University of South Alabama, and co-editor of the Journal of Mixed Methods Research, as our keynote speaker. There will also be a strand focused on educational research related to gifted education. The third strand will focus on the interrelationships of educational research and education policy: this strand will be addressed by a panel of three current or former Nevada State Superintendents of Public Instruction. We are also looking for high quality presentations in all areas of educational research. There are a variety of presentation formats available, from traditional paper presentations, to workshops and symposia, to “Learn at Lunch” roundtable discussions.

Please pass this message to your faculty and graduate students and encourage them to consider submitting a proposal to present at NRMERA this year. We look forward to seeing many new faces at the MontBleu in October.

Personal Welcome from Richard Vineyard, President (PDF)
