You are invited to present at the AERO spring conference this year! The conference on “Working Together – Collaborating in Educational Research” will address the big ideas of collaboration, networking, sharing, and research to practice. It will take place from 9:00 am - 3:00 pm on Friday, June 1, 2012 at Chateau Le Jardin in Woodbridge, Ontario.

The conference will target three main topics that are of current interest to Ontario educational researchers and incorporate a collaboration approach, including: 

Student Success – Achievement (e.g., EQAO) and stakeholder engagement (e.g., students, parents, teachers, community) 

Early Years – Early Development Instrument (EDI) and Full-Day Kindergarten 

Bridging Gaps – Using research within "gap closing‟ projects: 1) KNAER (EREP) project on evaluating research on education programs for students with special needs (Be the first to see and help develop an innovative tool to promote research literacy through a systematic evaluation of research literature and resources.); 2) Other topics that are suitable for this focus area.

If you or someone you know are interested in presenting at the AERO spring conference this year, please provide the topic of interest, a brief description of the research project, and if you will be presenting in a team.  Submit your project information here.
