AFI aims to help universities fill a significant gap in typical approaches to on-campus assessment, by focusing attention on student flourishing, university community well-being, and student’s perceptions of the university’s contributions to their formation for lives of integrity, civic service, and flourishing more broadly. The AFI is a research consortium of colleges and universities working with us at HFH and with one another to implement a common campus-wide assessment and to pool their insights into how best to promote academic flourishing on their campuses and across higher education. Membership in the AFI is $10, 000 per year for institutions that join by November 30th, 2026, after which the cost will rise to $12, 000 per year. Participation can occur institution-wide or through an individual school, college, or academic unit. If you intend to join, please begin by filling out our Project Planning Form. Further inquiries about the AFI can be directed to Roza Nalbandyan. ________________________ Olga Gould-Yakovleva, Ph.D., M.Ed., M.A. Qualitative Researcher, Editor, The Qualitative Report, Leadership, Executive Committee Member & Senior Web Manager American Educational Research Association Division D Measurement Research & Methodologies Email: jo126edu@gmail.com   La Tasha T. Washington, DTech, ADAT, MBA Executive Assistant Chancellor’s Area - Human Subjects Research Support Clinical Trials Office LSU Health Shreveport Assistant Web Manager American Educational Research Association Division D Measurement Research & Methodologies Email: latasha.washington@lsuhs.edu   This email message and any attachments may contain privileged and/or confidential business information and are for the sole use of the intended recipient(s).

Call for Chapter Proposals for the book Artificial Intelligence in Qualitative Inquiry: A Grimoire of Conjuring, Haunting, Trespassing, and Doubling. 

Brief description: We are inviting proposals for chapters for the upcoming book titled Artificial Intelligence in Qualitative Inquiry: A Grimoire of Conjuring, Haunting, Trespassing, and Doubling. This book invites contributors to explore what AI might make possible within and around qualitative inquiry beyond efficiency and automation. The volume begins from a simple question: What does AI allow qualitative researchers to do, see, become, or imagine that might otherwise remain unavailable? Organized around four movements—conjuring, haunting, trespassing, and doubling—the collection welcomes experimental engagements with human and machinic voices, methods, materials, and ways of knowing.

Proposals due (500-750 words) by October 15, 2026

Draft manuscripts due by June 1, 2027
