Creating Opportunities to Learn: A Forum for Addressing Disproportionality, saw some of the nation?s top education experts addressing issues of equity, power and privilege, race, systems change, and policy leadership. Seventy-five concurrent sessions focused on creating culturally responsive educational systems to assure equity in educational outcomes for all students and become the vehicle for eliminating the disproportionate representation of culturally and linguistically diverse students in special education. The pre-conference, keynote and concurrent session presentations are now available at: http://www.nccrest.org/events/events_2006/disproportionality.html.
