Critical Questions in Education Conference

Registration for the 11th Annual conference is open

The Academy for Educational Studies will have its 11th Critical Questions in Education Conference in Baltimore on November 2-4 at the Hyatt Inner Harbor Hotel.

The conference themes for this conference are:

Teaching the disciplines: How are we doing?

What is it we want students to know and understand from, or about, the disciplines we teach, at both the K—12 and university levels? What are the truths the different disciplines aspire to reveal—the big questions they ask and try to answer, the perfection they seek to attain? How well do K—12 and university teachers convey these truths or give students access to them?

Why don’t we read serious books anymore?

Should we care that so many students, and so many teachers, can’t or don’t want to read books—not just at the K—12 level, but in colleges and universities, too?

You can find information about the program and registration in the documents attached.
