Conference Call for Proposals: 2016 Society of Professors of
Education Meeting; Due 12/31/15

The Society of Professors of Education (SPE) invites proposals for
presentation at its annual meeting held during the 2016 AERA Annual
Conference in Washington, DC, from April 8th to 12th.

Founded in 1902, the Society of Professors of Education (SPE) is a
professional and academic association open to all persons engaged in
teacher preparation, curriculum studies, educational foundations, and
related activities. The Society’s primary goal is to provide a forum
for consideration of major issues, tasks, problems, and challenges
confronting professional educators. SPE is an interdisciplinary
organization. Its members include both scholars and practitioners in
education.

We are especially interested in presentations that are focused on the
theme of  “Teaching for the world as it is…and for the world as it
could be.”   Proposals not related to the theme but focused on the
goals of the Society (above) are also welcome.

All presenters must be members of the Society of Professors of
Education in order to be included in the conference program.  We
encourage you to join the Society at your earliest convenience.  You
will find a membership form at the Society of Professors of Education
webpage at:
