"What We Know and How We Know It": April 10-14, 2001
82nd Annual Meeting of the American Educational Research Association
This year's theme is "What We Know and How We Know It." Everyone seems to have an opinion about what education research should and shouldn't do, how it should and shouldn't be done, what counts as "data" and what doesn't, what is and is not "scientific," and what educational research does and does not say about key topics and issues. For the most part, these discussions, these opinions, these pronouncements are being conducted by non-researchers and others outside the arena of educational research. It is time to take back the ball, to weigh in on what we know best, to assume control again of this enterprise within which we work and live.
