The Qualitative Research Special Interest Group, QRSIG, established in 1987, was created to provide a space within AERA for the discussion of philosophical, ethical, and methodological issues in Qualitative Research as well as to seek cutting edge approaches to qualitative research methods. The QRSIG strives to legitimize all non traditional forms of research, and to support other SIG's and Divisions with similar interests and goals, including an emphasis on ways that qualitative research may contribute to reducing inequality and injustice in schools and society.
AERA 2024 will be held Thursday, April 11–Sunday, 14, 2024, Philadelphia, PA. The conference theme will be Dismantling Racial Injustice and Constructing Educational Possibilities: A Call to Action.
