American Association for the Advancement of Curriculum Studies Conference

The AAACS is the United States chapter of the International Association for the Advancement of Curriculum Studies, a worldwide consortium of those with an interest in the field of curriculum studies. Primarily comprised of scholars, students, and other interested parties, the Annual Meeting of the AAACS is currently free of charge and sessions are open to those who wish to attend.

Held just prior to the annual meeting of the American Education Research Association, our annual conference is located on a university campus or sponsored cite in the same city as that year’s AERA conference. Each year sessions are organized around a central theme that reflects the tenor, tone, and content of current curricular conversations.

13th Annual Meeting
Monday, March 31 –Thursday, April 3, 2014, Arcadia University, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Alternative Presidential Address — Monday, March 31st. | 5-8 p.m. | Mirror Room (Moderated by current AAACS President, Peter Appelbaum of Arcadia’s School of Education)

This “Alternative Address” will feature a conversation among local activists and educational scholars to have a facilitated conversation on contemporary challenges to education in a democratic society. All area educators and those interested in support of educational institutions are invited to join.
