March 2012
Barbara Schneider, of Michigan State University, was voted AERA president-elect in the Association’s 2012 election. Five other education researchers were elected to member-at-large positions on the AERA Council, and 6 were elected to representative positions on Council.
Schneider’s research focuses on family, social context of schooling, and sociology of knowledge, with particular focus on improving educational opportunities for students with limited economic and social resources. She is coauthor of numerous books and coeditor of two AERA volumes, Estimating Causal Effects Using Experimental and Observational Designs (2007) and the Handbook of Education Policy Research (2009). Schneider has also served as editor of Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis and Sociology of Education. She holds a Ph.D. from Northwestern University.
The 5 new members-at-large are Ann E. Austin, Michigan State University (1-year term), Dolores Delgado Bernal, University of Utah (1-year term), Gary L. Anderson, New York University (2-year term), M. Elizabeth (Beth) Graue, University of Wisconsin–Madison (3-year term), and Cynthia A. Tyson, The Ohio State University–Columbus (3-year term). Anderson and Graue will also serve on the AERA Executive Board.
The new members-at-large are part of an expansion of the AERA Council to increase the number of members-at-large from 2 to 6, and the varied terms will result in a rotation of 2 new members-at-large on Council each year. The expansion was approved by the AERA membership in a referendum included in the 2011 AERA election.
Schneider and the 5 new members-at-large will assume their positions at the end of the 2012 AERA Annual Meeting.
Four researchers were elected as division vice presidents and will join AERA Council beginning in 2013. They are Kathy Nakagawa, Arizona State University (Division E), Adrianna Kezar, University of Southern California (Division J), A. Lin Goodwin, Columbia University (Division K), and Ellen B. Goldring, Vanderbilt University (Division L). In addition, graduate student Jennifer Carinci, Johns Hopkins University, was voted chair-elect of the Graduate Student Council and will join AERA Council in 2013.
A total of 5,836 ballots were cast in this year’s election. The participation rate among eligible voters was 23.98%, compared with 25.33% in 2011, 25.86% in 2010, 24.05% in 2009, and 25.35% in 2008.
This election marks the fourth year that all ballots were cast electronically and the fourth year that SIG elections were conducted as part of the AERA election.
AERA is pleased to announce the following complete results of the 2012 election:2012
