CALL FOR PROPOSALS:
The 2010 conference theme focuses on new research methodologies that have emerged in response to new questions in literacy research, such as the relationship between literacy and identity, longitudinal literacy development, and out-of-school literacies. The conference theme also aims to address current practical, theoretical, and methodological challenges in literacy research, such as collecting rich data within classrooms and managing tensions between “scientifically-based” research and in-depth qualitative research. Our keynote speakers will speak to the affordances and challenges of various literacy research methodologies, including memoir, oral history, classroom discourse analysis, policy research and teacher/faculty collaborations.
We welcome proposals that describe literacy researchers’ methodological insights and challenges through descriptions of specific studies, explorations of emerging theories of research, and considerations of practical and ethical research dilemmas.
Proposals (no more than 2 single-spaced pages) should address the following: The research question(s), methodology, findings/issues/questions for discussion, and how the research will contribute to the conference conversation. If your paper is a conceptual/theoretical one, please describe your theoretical framework and argument and tell how it will contribute to the conference conversation. We strongly encourage the participation of classroom teachers and graduate students, so if you are currently a classroom teacher or graduate student, please indicate so in your proposal. Please send all proposals to NCTEAR@pitt.edu. The deadline for submission of proposals is September 30, 2009.

At the NCTE’s annual convention in Philadelphia in November, the assembly for research will sponsor two events. Building upon our theme of “Methodology Matters,” our featured speaker on the day of research will be Deborah Hicks from the Univ. of Cincinnati. Our day-long workshop, on Monday, November 23rd will focus on “Research in our Own Classrooms” and is designed for K-12 teachers, teacher educators, and researchers. Workshop facilitators will include Stuart Greene (Notre Dame), Rick Ayers (Berkeley HS), Janet Alsup (Purdue) and Rick Beach (Univ of Minnesotta). We hope you will join us!
