1. Results of the poll for proposed amendments to the CIES Constitution
2. Call for abstracts: The Intersection between Peace, Sustainability and Citizenship/Democratic Education
There is a growing interest in peace education, education for sustainable development, and citizenship/democratic education. This pattern is clearly reflected in the growth of CIES SIGs in these domains. This year, we are interested in submitting a panel to the 2013 CIES conference that addresses the intersection between these domains. We seek paper/presentation ideas from CIES members interested in exploring the relationships/links between peace, sustainable development, and citizenship/democratic education. Both theoretical and empirical contributions are welcome. Please send abstracts to Karen Ross (Peace Education SIG Co-Chair; ) and Oren Pizmony-Levy (ESD SIG Chair;) no later than 10/1/2012.
3. Workshop: Working with Data from Countries that Best Prepare Math Teachers
The workshop, "Pre-Service Teacher Education and MathematicsKnowledge for Teaching among Future Primary and Secondary Teachers:Learning to Work with Data from an International Investigation using TEDS-M," will be held October 5-7, at The Teacher Education andDevelopment International Research Center at Michigan StateUniversity. The workshop will involve international data from theTeacher Education Study in Mathematics (TEDS-M), a study of thepolicies, programs, and outcomes of mathematics pre-service teachereducation in 17 countries. The workshop will examine the theory andpractice of teacher education and specifically mathematics teacher education and its impact as an important dimension of teacher quality.
