Annual Meeting
Fri. Oct. 24, 2014 - Sat. Oct. 25, 2014
Central Connecticut State University, New Britain, CT
Keynote Speaker:
Chet A. Bowers, Professor Emeritus at University of Oregon
EcoJustice Education Philosopher/Theorist
Conference Theme:
Continuing Relevance and New Spaces for Educational Philosophy
This year’s conference theme is focusing on ways in which educational
philosophy, history, and foundations are deeply connected to current
issues, practices, and policies that are driving education. Some
topics may include, but are not necessarily limited to:
· Neoliberal based reforms in educational policy and practices
· Sustainability & regeneration of educational spaces
· Online education/MOOCs
· Sociocultural issues, ethnic studies
The Program Committee invites proposals for additional sessions on
topics relevant to philosophy of education and philosophic treatment
of the problems of education. The committee especially encourages
submission of proposals across a wide range of philosophy, history and
social contexts of education and foundations of education subject
topics, including those by established authors and individuals
(including graduate students) who are new in the field or are in the
process of developing new work. The committee also wants to extend an
invitation to graduate students, community members, and educational
activists.
These proposals may be for traditional papers and panels, or workshops
designed to foster or improve work in these fields.
