The AERA Educational Change SIG adopts an interdisciplinary and international approach to understanding many aspects of educational change, including large-scale reform, school-initiated change, school improvement, and classroom-level change.
The Educational Change SIG is excited to share a Call for Presenters for the 7th Biennial Siglo XXI Conference (October 16–17, 2025), hosted by the Latino Research Center at the University of Nevada, Reno in collaboration with the Inter-University Program for Latino Research (IUPLR). This year’s theme, Nuestra Presencia: Affirming Identities and the Presence of People of Latino/a Ancestry across the U.S., honors Dr. Gilberto Cárdenas and celebrates the intellectual, cultural, and civic contributions of Latino/a communities nationwide.
The call invites scholars, researchers, and graduate students whose work centers equity, leadership, and Latino/a voices to submit presentation proposals. The conference offers a vibrant space to critically engage topics such as education, social justice, migration, public policy, community empowerment, and more. Extended proposal submissions are due by August 31; if additional time is needed, the organizing team welcomes direct outreach.
