Qualitative Research SIG Program Highlights—AERA 2012

The Qualitative Research SIG is excited by our program for this year’s annual meeting. We had so many excellent submissions and the decisions of what to include and how to include were a challenge, to say the least. We have aimed for maximum diversity amidst this abundance of quality in the SIG program submissions. Please find listed below the sessions sponsored by the Qualitative Research SIG and those that we co-sponsor with Division D (Measurement and Research Methodology) and Division F (History and Historiography). More information about the authors and paper titles can be found in the searchable program on the AERA website: www.aera.net.
