Currently, our membership is approximately 200 scholars and practitioners from around the world! We are eager to expand our membership and welcome teacher educators, teachers, and other practitioners who are interested in studying their own practice in order to contribute to professional learning, ways of knowing, and knowledge generation.
At the 2024 conference in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, April 11 - 14, we hosted numerous paper and round table sessions related to the conference theme Dismantling Racial Injustice and Constructing Educational Possibilities: A Call to Action." We also enjoyed high attendance and participation at our business meeting and reception.

(The Castle Conference)
On August 6 - 10, 2023, the 14th International Conference on Self-Study of Teacher Education Practices was held at Herstmonceux Castle in East Sussex, England, around the theme Pausing at the Threshold: Opportunity Through, With, and For Self-Study of Teacher Education Practices. Abby Cameron-Standerford, Bethney Bergh, and Christi U. Edge from the University of Northern Michigan served as editors for the accompanying open-access book containing 68 chapters that were selected and refined through a double-blind peer-review process. You can access the book at Pausing at the Threshold. For the books and proceedings of previous Castle Conferences, please see our archives.
