Selected Presidential Sessions

This sampling of AERA Presidential Sessions provides a sense of the rich and compelling content that will engage Annual Meeting attendees.


Increasing the Opportunity for Academic and Life Success: Trauma-Informed Schooling and Consequences

Thursday, April 27, 12:00 p.m. - 1:30 p.m.
Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center, Ballroom Level, 301 A&B

This session will examine critical issues around the meaning and indicators of trauma as well as its contexts and consequences.Trauma is increasingly becoming a catch-all term associated with problems with schooling, achievement and adaptation. While the pernicious effects of events involving abuse and the obstacles imposed by racism, homophobia, social discrimination and poverty are not questionable the conceptualization of trauma needs to be considered. This session will explore the conceptualization of trauma and its relationship to educational opportunity and equity. It will also consider gaps in trauma research in order to inform future research by asking: What do we know about and how do we integrate trauma research knowledge in our work?

Chair: Ramon Markee Jevon Griffin
Participants: Tony Brown, Lalitha M. Vasudevan, Margaret Beale Spencer, and Leon Caldwell

How Social Media Is Changing the Politics of Education

Thursday, April 27, 4:05 p.m. - 5:35 p.m.
Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center, Ballroom Level, Room 304 C

The undeniable influence of Twitter in the recent presidential election raises important questions about the evolving role of social media in American political discourse. This session will highlight the role of social media as a new means by which education politics and policy are conceptualized, understood, and engaged with by public actors. For example, an analysis of nearly one million tweets from 190,000 distinct actors about the Common Core State Standards showed how social media activists wielded influence to help shape the political context which informed state and federal policy making. Utilizing multiple methods, including social network analysis, big data text mining techniques, and discourse analysis, the researchers on this panel will discuss the major trends in the ways in which new forms of participatory media are changing the political context around major education reforms. The session presenters will also discuss how education scholars can use their work to engage with the broader public.

Chair: Jonathan A. Supovitz
Participants: Alan J. Daly, Jonathan A. Supovitz, James P. Spillane, Jeffrey R. Henig, Ryan Boyd, and Christian Kolouch

Solving Teacher Inequities by Putting Knowledge into Action

Thursday, April 27, 4:05 p.m. - 5:35 p.m.
Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center, Ballroom Level, 302 A&B

This session will examine recent research on teacher shortages and the inequitable distribution of teachers in relation to policy and practice initiatives designed to address these issues more effectively than has often been the case in the past. The symposium will highlight knowledge leading to action by presenting research providing national and state level data and projections on growing teacher shortages that disproportionately affect our most disadvantaged students, and research that suggests how solutions can be achieved. It will also describe the work that is being done by researchers who are collaborating with policymakers and educators to use this knowledge base to create smarter, sustainable solutions. A panel of researchers and educational policy leaders will discuss policy and practice changes that have occurred as a result of the research, efforts that are underway, and the additional research and policy work needed to support actionsthat will lead to lasting solutions to the inequitable distribution of qualified teachers. 

Chair: Linda Darling-Hammond

Bias in the Classroom: Then, Now, Tomorrow

Sunday, April 30, 12:25 p.m. - 1:55 p.m.
Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center, Ballroom Level, 303 A&B

Ray Rist’s seminal work, “Student Social Class and Teacher Expectations: The Self-Fulfilling Prophecy in Ghetto Education”, sparked debates that have continued over time, whether focused on poverty or race, access or inequity, or urban versus suburban schooling. As recent research suggests, however, the issues of class and race bias are alive and well, evident within and across all age groups and contexts. Such bias may be implicit in interactions between students and teachers, between students and students, or between teachers and teachers, or explicit in the public discourses within society. How is this bias manifesting itself in classrooms and schools, how is it being addressed, what approaches are useful in addressing it, and with what opportunities for learning and change?

Education Unbordered: Immigrant, Refugee, Detained, and Undocumented Children and Families

Sunday, April 30, 12:25 p.m. - 1:55 p.m.
Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center, Ballroom Level, 301 A&B 

This session will focus on the individual and collective issues associated with immigration, refugee, detained, and undocumented children and families. How do we imagine schools as boundless in the context they engage and the opportunities they can afford for all children, and especially for children who enter the country? What is the status of research and how is it informing change for these children and their families? What is the role of schools, and what is needed in policy and practice to mediate the hardship and complexity of both the process and effect of policies? How are borders made more permeable and open for schools to effect change?

Racial Conciliation, Interest Convergence, and the Role of Education and Schooling

Sunday, April 30, 2:15 p.m. - 3:45 p.m.
Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center, Ballrom Level, 302 A&B

This session will examine the role of education research and practice within the context of current debates around race and racial equity. It will address three questions: Is it possible to measure racial progress and chart a path toward further progress? Are racial conciliation and interest convergence panaceas to quell discontent and to avoid difficult issues, or are they viable pathways to promote access and justice? What is the role of educational research, practice, and policy in this discussion?

Technology, Digital Media, and Implications for Learning Sciences

Sunday, April 30, 2:15 p.m. - 3:45 p.m.
Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center, Ballroom Level, 301 A&B

This session will focus on emerging technologies and their uses in epistemological framings, teaching, and the construction of knowledge. Technology and digital media have the potential to play a powerful role in shaping educational research, practice and policy. This power is evident when we consider how recent social movements have developed. Current complexities such as the digital divide will be considered in terms of how technology and digital media both afford and constrain teaching and learning. The session will consider how we can harness technology and digital media developments to the benefit of a more equitable educational agenda?

Mexican American Educational Experiences and the Historical Struggle for Equal Educational Opportunity: A Critical Conversation

Monday, May 1, 2:15 p.m. - 3:45 p.m.
Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center, 301 A&B

This Presidential Session examines the struggle for equal educational opportunity by Mexican Americans over time, space and in different regions of North America. Historians and sociologists of education offer a unique perspective on the experiences of Mexican Americans across the U.S. This breadth and depth of understanding the commonalities and variance across the experiences of Mexican Americans in the U.S. make for an exceptional way to grasp the texture of how individual communities have grappled with the challenge of providing educational opportunity in the face of formidable obstacles. This Presidential Session specifically engages in a critical conversation with a group of accomplished historians of education whose work explores how Mexican Americans have struggled for equal educational opportunities over time. Panelists will present an overview of their research on the history of Mexican American in the United State and relate it to the notion of educational opportunity and elements of the Coleman Report. The session will also include time for questions from the audience to allow for connections from the past and to present conditions.

Chair: Ann Marie Ryan

The Science of Measurement: Using Testing Standards to Increase Research Validity

Friday, April 28, 10:35 a.m. - 12:05 p.m.
Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center, Ballroom Level, 302 A&B

The last decade has witnessed enormous attention to increasing the rigor of educational research through scientific design and sophisticated data analysis methodologies. Emerging technologies have provided new assessment tools for measuring a wider range of research processes and outcomes. Interestingly, however, the quality of the measures used in research, a potentially fatal flaw in the validity of research findings, has received relatively little attention. This symposium reviews research on the quality of research measures and presents the Standards for Educational and Psychological Testing as a key resource for strengthening practice. The session highlights validity and fairness standards that are particularly important for research instruments and considers implications for research policy and practice.

Conversations Around the Collection and Use of Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Data

AERA Sessions Cosponsored with Queer Studies SIG, Committee on Scholars and Advocates for Gender Equity in Education
Sunday, April 30, 8:15 a.m. - 10:15 a.m.
Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center, Ballroom Level, 302 A&B

Increasingly, data are gathered on sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI). For example, federal data collection agencies have listed guidelines for how to ask about SOGI, and some agencies (e.g., CDC) release individual-level data on youth sexual orientation. The National Center for Education Statistics is beginning to include SOGI items in its High School Longitudinal Study (HSLS). Research societies and scientific associations are examining the best methods to collect sexual orientation and gender identity from members. As these data collection efforts proliferate and evolve, this panel will discuss topics including (a) the history of federal interagency efforts to include SOGI item guidance, (b) the development of the new SOGI items in HSLS, (c) best practices for SOGI data collection, (d) considerations around ensuring SOGI data validity with large datasets, and (e) how research societies are capturing and collecting gender identity. Following the panelists’ presentations, the audience will have time to engage panelists in a Q&A session.
