REMP/CEA Faculty, Students, and Staff at NCME and AERA 2007!
The Center for Educational Assessment and the Research and Evaluation Methods Program is pleased to note that a number of faulty, students, and staff have had their work accepted for presentation on the programs of the annual meetings of the American Educational Research Association and the National Council on Measurement in Education. These meetings will be held in Chicago, Illnois, April 9 - 13, 2007. More information about AERA's meeting can be found here on the conference website, and here for NCME.
Below is a brief listing of CEA/REMP presentations at NCME, then AERA.
