The 16th Annual Continuation of Conversations With Senior Scholars on Advancing Research and Professional Development Related to Black Education
Sat, April 14, 4:05 to 6:05pm, Vancouver Convention Centre, Floor: First Level, West Room 118-120Session Submission Type: Invited Roundtable
Abstract
Initiated in Chicago at the 1997 Annual Meeting, the 2010 session of Continued Conversation with Senior Scholars on Advancing Research and Professional Development Related to Black Education will be number 16 in this very popular and widely heralded series. We have been fortunate to have been granted Presidential Session status since 1999 in Montreal—thus, the Vancouver session will earmark 14 years as a Presidential Session. Further and most importantly, we have been fortunate to have some of the most notable education scholars in the country participate as topical conveners. We initially started with 10 tables and now we have 16 tables as involved in the session. Over the years, we have averaged approximately 14 participants per table with a range of 5 to 40 participants at the tables. For example, at the 2006 conference in San Francisco, we had approximately 200 participant make visits at the 13 tables, and that is not counting those who convened the discussions at each table. Last year in New Orleans the number was almost 150 visits.
