Invitation to submit proposals on PIRLS for the 2014 European Conference on Educational Research (ECER)
INVITATION to contribute a paper on results of PIRLS secondary analyses for the European Conference on Educational Research 2014 September 2–5, Porto, Portugal
Dear Friends and Colleagues, The 2014 European Conference on Educational Research (ECER), organized by the EERA (European Educational Research Association) will take place from September 2–5, in Porto, Portugal – see: http://www.eera-ecer.de/
Towards explaining achievement: Findings from international comparative achievement studies for which the national research coordinators of IEA studies PIRLS and/or TIMSS, and/or the OECD PISA study and other researchers working on secondary analyses of these data are invited to present a paper in which they report about findings of secondary analysis of data. At previous ECER conferences, the network had thematic sessions with papers on TIMSS, PIRLS and PISA, organized under various headings, such as Relationship in Reading Performance / Mathematics Performance / Science Performance, National Reflections on International Comparative Achievement Studies, and Performance Issues in Different Subject Domains.
Please note that we will offer for ECER 2014 (like in previous years) the choice between two types of sessions on this theme, viz a symposium and thematic sessions:
– Symposium: The symposium is composed of one or more sessions with three to four presentations each and a discussant per session. The formal requirement for a symposium is that presenters hand in their full paper OR the full presentations (i.e. the full set of slides with an extended abstract of 1000–1500 words or 2–3 pages) two weeks prior to the conference so that the discussant will have enough time to prepare the discussion;
– Thematic paper sessions comprising of three to four thematically grouped papers per session without a formal discussant.
INVITATION
On behalf of Network 9, I am inviting you to submit a paper proposal on results of PIRLS secondary analysis, either national or cross-national. Please indicate whether you submit a proposal for the symposium or for a thematic session. A similar invitation will be sent to researchers who were/are involved in the PISA study (by Pekka Kupari) or the TIMSS study (by me). Both the symposium and the sessions on the theme ‘Towards explaining achievement: Findings from international comparative achievement studies’ will be organized by the coordinators of Network 9: Pekka Kupari (University of Jyvaskyla, Finland), Wilfried Bos (Link Convenor of Network 9) and Martin Goy (both from the University of Dortmund, Germany), Monica Rosén (University of Gothenburg, Sweden) and by me. When we have received and reviewed all the paper proposals for both the symposium and the paper sessions, we will analyze the topics or research questions addressed and arrange them in a number of thematic sessions.
