10th annual Critical Questions in Education Conference, San Diego, California, February 16th – 18th, 2015

10th annual Critical Questions in Education Conference to be held in San Diego, California, at the beautiful U.S. Grant Hotel.  This is a national, blind, peer-reviewed education conference dedicated to thinking about important questions in education.  The conference will be held on February 16th – 18th, 2015.  Deadline for proposals is November 1st, 2014.

Our 2014/2015 theme questions are:

Why have civil rights era educational legislation and policy in the United States failed our most vulnerable students?
How should we address the needs of these students in and out of school?
and
How is schooling conducted in other countries?  What can we learn from the policies, purposes,
and practices of education systems—or individual schools—from around the world?  And what
can systems and schools from around the world learn from American education?

We also welcome proposals on one of our past theme questions 
See the Call for Proposals, attached, for a full list of topics. 

Presenters are encouraged to shape responses to these questions in any way they like.  Please see the Call for Proposals for some suggestions on how these questions might be approached.  

We hope you will submit a proposal and come join us this year—friends sharing some important talk about some provocative educational questions.  We also hope you will share this Call for Proposals with friends and colleagues—and with any list-serves which might accept it.

If you have any questions about what the Academy has been up to, or questions about the conference, please feel free to contact me.
