In the 21st century, accountability in K-12 schools and in higher education is an increasingly apparent reality; this reality takes on more import in our struggling economy. As educational researchers and as educators our responsibility has always been to find approaches that connect theory and practice through research, resulting in increased student learning at all levels. The stakes are high as children and young adults alike will benefit from improved practice, authentic ways of testing, and research that communicates practical and promising strategies grounded in theory. We welcome and encourage all types of research proposals and hope that our presentations and discussions will join the national conversation, demonstrating the important role of research in unlocking the secrets of student learning.
Our keynote speaker this year will be James Popham, professor Emeritus at UCLA and expert on educational testing. He will be speaking on issues related to assessment and accountability.
