Call for Proposals
Open for proposals: 10/1/2012
Close: 11/27/2012
AEFP members and prospective members are invited to submit proposals for the AEFP 38th Annual Conference on March 14-16, 2013. Proposals may address any of a broad range of topics in education finance and policy. Individuals submitting proposals should be an AEFP member or planning to become a member prior to the annual meeting.
Proposals may be submitted for one of four presentation formats: an individual paper, a poster, a complete session comprised of three or four papers, or a complete session in an alternative format.
- Papers or Posters: Papers and posters are research investigations on an important topic for education finance or policy. Researchers present papers as part of a panel with two or three other papers and discussants. Completed papers are submitted through aefpweb.org one month prior to the conference. Researchers who present posters present them together during a time slot at the annual conference designated only for posters. AEFP will provide poster boards for poster presenters.
- Complete Session – Paper Format: This type of session is a pre-organized group of three or four papers on a shared and important topic for education finance or policy. These proposals require a session chair, 3 or 4 paper abstracts, and at least one discussant.
- Complete Session – Non-paper Format: This type of session is an integrated dialogue among three or more participants concerning a well-defined topic, sharing knowledge about new and important developments relevant to educational finance and policy. These proposals require a session chair and at least three panel members.
