AERA i-Presentation Gallery The AERA i-Presentation Gallery provides Annual Meeting presenters a user-friendly vehicle to present their papers in a dynamic format that allows for an overall narration as well as audio or video capture within any slide as part of their display.
With more than 2,500 sessions to choose from, the 2025 Annual Meeting provides a dynamic experience with opportunities to learn from prominent scholars, discover the latest research, engage in stimulating conversations, and foster professional relationships.
The 2025 Annual Meeting offers a rich array of sessions and events for all attendees.
Major events such as the Opening Keynote Lecture, the AERA Presidential Address, the AERA Distinguished Lecture and the Wallace Foundation Distinguished Lecture, the AERA Awards Ceremony and Celebration, and more, should be on every attendee’s schedule. Along with AERA Awards Lectures, these premier sessions offer unparalleled opportunities to hear from thought leaders, exemplary researchers, and champions of education research.
Tied to the 2025 Annual Meeting theme “Research, Remedy, and Repair: Toward Just Education Renewal” the AERA Presidential Sessions provide rich and compelling content designed to engage attendees on key issues in education research, policy, and practice.
The Research and Science Policy Forum will offer a series of sessions focused on important issues at the intersection of education research and science policy. Presenters include policy leaders from key federal science offices and agencies, foundation heads, and important scholars.
In addition to major lectures and high-profile AERA-wide sessions, hundreds of paper, roundtable, and poster sessions and symposia will be held by AERA divisions, SIGs, and committees. Be certain to check out the sessions offered by those AERA units that align with your research interests.
Among the special features are e-Lightening Ed-Talks, where selected poster session authors will present their research in the form of a rapid-fire and engaging presentation in the Exhibit Hall. Presentations are a maximum of four minutes long followed by up to two minutes of Q&A.
In collaboration with the World Education Research Association and numerous other international organizations, the Annual Meeting not only spotlights research from around the globe but also supports and advances the worldwide impact of the field.
AERA is also pleased to showcase again this year the Graduate Student Research-in-Progress Roundtable Series and the Research Engagement and Development with Youth (READY), formerly known as Youth Teams in Education Research, which were both successfully pilot-tested at the 2023 Annual Meeting.
