College and University Faculty Assembly of the NCSS

Call for Proposals 2010 CUFA Conference

College and University Faculty Assembly Annual Conference

Denver, Colorado, November 10-11, 2010

Submission Deadline: Monday, March 1, 2010

CUFA invites proposals for sessions that report on empirical research or conceptual analyses of social education. The 2010 theme, Visions, Vistas, and Voices, brings into relief the centrality of the social studies in our schools and how research vistas, theoretical visions, and global voices from the past and present impact social studies teaching and learning. There are three avenues for submission with revised guidelines.

Call for Proposals: Grad Forum

CUFA Graduate Forum Members:

We invite you to submit proposals for the CUFA Graduate Session at the annual conference in Denver, CO; being held on November 12-14, 2010. Each
year at CUFA, graduate students are provided with two sessions that showcase student papers for professors and other graduate students. We invite
proposals for these sessions that report on empirical research or conceptual analyses of social education.

Attached to this message is the application form. *The application form and accompanying proposal are due by Saturday, January 30, 2010* (The deadline has been extended to February 19). The reason we send out this call before CUFA proposals are due is to allow proposals that were not accepted to be revised and submitted to the CUFA program session.

"Ethics and International Curriculum Work: The Challenges of Culture and Context"

Expected Publication Date: Spring 2011

Curriculum innovations occur within specific contexts and reflect the values associated with those contexts. Their impact and efficacy can only be assessed within the particular social, cultural, and political environments in which they occur. Educators around the world, especially those in countries experiencing large-scale, systemic political change, often look to the U.S. and other Western countries for new approaches to curriculum and instruction practices that reflect more open, democratic, and participatory educational systems.
