Welcome to the History of Education Society
2011 HISTORY OF EDUCATION SOCIETY Annual Meeting
CHICAGO, November 3-6
The Program Committee invites proposals on all topics relevant to the
history of education in any time period or nation. The Committee
defines "education" broadly, to include all institutions of
socialization--mass media, voluntary organizations, and so on--as well
as schools and universities. Proposals may be submitted for an
individual paper, a complete paper session, or a panel discussion. A
proposal for an individual paper spells out the paper's focus and
rationale; if accepted, this paper and others related to it will be
combined into a paper session. A proposal for a complete paper
session provides a prospectus for a coherent collection of three or
four papers, including a title for the session, a title for each
paper, names of all authors, a chair, and a discussant. A panel
discussion is a session in which a group of qualified panelists
discusses an important issue in the field, where the panelists are not
presenting papers. Please include affiliations and email addresses for all participants.
Proposals are due on or before February 15, 2011 (no later than 9:00 p.m., Pacific time).
Your proposal should either be a two-page proposal, single-spaced,
describing an individual paper (references may be in addition to the
two pages), or a four-page proposal, single-spaced, describing a
complete paper session or panel discussion (again, references may be
in addition to the four pages). The proposal should include the
following elements: the topic, the theme, and an overview of the study
or discussion; the findings or conclusions; the significance and how
the work relates to other scholarship in the field; and the sources.
Please eliminate any identifying information from your proposal before uploading it.
To submit a proposal, you will have to go to our proposal submission
website. The site will open by 1 December 2010. It is the same
website used for the 2010 Annual Meeting (with a change of year in the
address):
https://cmt.research.microsoft.com/HES2011
You will be asked to log into, or create, an account. The simple
prompts will then guide you in entering your proposal information,
uploading your proposal, and providing some additional information.
The History of Education Society requires all presenters at the 2011
conference to be members of the society. Invitations for membership
will be sent to authors of accepted proposals along with details about
the conference. This year the society is offering a one-day registration fee of $25.
