The School of Education at AERA 2020

Due to CDC travel recommendations in light of the expanding impact of COVID-19, paired with the recent State of Emergency declared by the mayor of San Francisco, the American Educational Research Association has elected not to host a place-based Annual Meeting in 2020. Please visit the AERA website to read the official announcement. If and when they release a digital meeting schedule, we will update this page to include School of Education participation.

As a result, we regret to inform you that the College of Education’s AERA reception, scheduled for Saturday, April 18, at the E&O Kitchen And Bar in San Francisco, CA, has also been canceled.

We look forward to seeing you at AERA in Orlando, FL in 2021 .
