CAERDA Annual International Conference

The CAERDA Annual International Conference serves as an open forum for interdisciplinary discussion and scholarly exchange among educational researchers and practitioners from around the world. The participants, with or without an ethnic Chinese background, get together to present their recent research findings and drawimplications for issues related to CAERDA’s mission.

The program primarily consists of presentations selected through a blind peer-review process. In addition, there are invited speakers, symposia, and panel discussions that feature the annual conference theme. Selected presentations are published in the New Waves Journal, the CAERDA’s professional online journal, or an annual feature publication of CAERDA.

The CAERDA Conference is held immediately before the Annual Convention of the American Educational Research Association (AERA) at the same location. This affiliation provides added convenience and enriched experience to conference participants to benefit from the programs of both conferences.

The 20th Annual International Conference of the Chinese American Research and Development Association will be held from Thursday morning, April 12 to Friday noon, April 13, 2012 at one of the AERA headquarter hotels in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. As part of the 20th celebration, there will be a Journal Editors’ Session, Past Presidents’ Session, special keynotes by Prof. Hua-Hua Chang at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and Prof. Xitao Fan at the University of Macau, China, and more.
