It's that time of year where we ask for your nominations for SIG officers. Self-nominations are encouraged. We have a very active SIG, and we encourage you to consider being involved as a SIG officer. The SIG leadership is always a diverse, engaging group. The SIG Executive Committee meets twice a year via zoom - once prior to AERA and once just before NAGC. Attendance at NAGC is not required for SIG officers, but SIG officers are expected to attend and be active in the RoGCT SIG events at the AERA conference. Newly elected officers will transition into their role during the April 2026 Annual Meeting and begin their term at the close of the meeting.
Eligibility: You must be in good standing with AERA and with the SIG. Graduate Student members may only run for the Graduate Student Representative position. Current officers may run for consecutive terms, with a limit of two consecutive terms in the same position.
Positions:
If you wish to be considered for one of the positions listed below, please email me (rambohernandez@tamu.edu):
Please send me your information no later than Tuesday, September 30, to give me time to meet the AERA deadline.
Karen E. Rambo-Hernandez, Ph.D.

The Path Breaker Award is given in recognition of collaborative research by a scholar and graduate student who co-author an article related to giftedness, creativity, or talent that is published in a journal not traditionally or regularly focused on these fields. The Path Breaker Award is designed to reward scholars in our field for publishing in journals that would not traditionally include articles with a focus on gifted, talented, or creative populations.
