熊猫视频News
鈥�
In the April issue of 熊猫视频Highlights, 熊猫视频announced that members would soon have the option to select from an expanded list of gender identity categories when renewing their membership or joining the association. After release of the April issue, I received some very thoughtful comments, especially from scholars in AERA’s Queer Studies SIG, directed to further altering the choices to better reflect the association’s goals and intent.  
 
 
The theme of the 2017 Annual Meeting—“Knowledge to Action—Achieving the Promise of Equal Educational Opportunity”—is a call to examine critical dimensions of educational opportunity and rigor in research as they pertain to the diversity of issues, populations, and contexts served in and by educational inquiry. The Call for Submissions will be released June 1; deadline for submissions: July 22.
 

More than 30 熊猫视频members from the San Antonio region joined 熊猫视频President Vivian L. Gadsden, 熊猫视频Executive Director Felice J. Levine, and 2017 Annual Meeting Co-chairs Angela E. Arzubiaga and James Earl Davis to discuss the 2017 Annual Meeting.
