Crossing Boundaries
Education Policy Studies
Graduate Student Research Symposium
Friday, March 30, 2012
102 Kern Building (Faculty Senate)
Graduate students are invited to submit proposals that focus on current issues in education by applying new analyses, theories, or methods that suggest a new research direction designed to address the limitations of existing education scholarship.
aSubmissions may consist of a discussion of theory or methods but could also use an education related case study to explicate the question at issue. All submissions should accomplish at least one of the following: (1) a discussion of current thought in the study of education and its subfield(s), (2) a description of a problem or gap in this thought, and/or (3) explication of a new approach that might address this issue.
The symposium is an opportunity for students to present recently completed and “in-progress” work to an audience of peers – graduate students, faculty members, and alumni. In order to be considered please submit a 500-word abstract to sch5169@psu.edu as a Word-compatible (e.g., .doc, .rtf) attachment by Friday, March 3, 2012. Please contact Sarah Hoffman (sch5169@psu.edu) or Emil Cunningham (emil@psu.edu) with questions.
