I’d like to keep an ongoing list of education data events. Please email me or post a comment if you know of others.
APRIL/MAY 2013
The American Educational Research Association’s (AERA) annual meeting is taking place Saturday, April 27 to Wednesday, May 1,2013 in San Francisco, California. This year’s theme is “education and poverty” and some of the sessions will be live streamed. Here is the full agenda. Click on “events calendar” to see day by day.
(I’ll be attending as an AERA data journalism fellow and continuing on to attend the Educational Writer’s Association’s national seminar, from May 2 through May 4, at Stanford University. I’ll be sharing what I learn there on this blog.)
