> Dear XMCA members and friends, 
> 
> As your SIG program chairs, we are very excited to be sending out the AERA 2013 call for proposals! We feel that the theme,  "Education and Poverty: Theory, Research, Policy, and Praxis”, is especially significant to our SIG members and colleagues as we often attempt to address ongoing disparities between the rich and poor in the United States and around the world that is grounded in specific understandings of the ways and means human development is understood within global contexts. We welcome all submissions, especially those that explore this general theme from a cultural-historical perspective, but would especially encourage proposals that explore the general theme from the intersections between theory and praxis.

> The deadline for proposal submissions is July 22, 2012, but can be submitted as early as July 1st.

> Please note that there are very limited numbers of symposia available. Roundtables are a good option as they are set up to allow for ‘presenting’ and discussion of various papers. The distinguishing factor is that the goal of the roundtable is more discussion amongst all the participants whereas a symposium is arranged more for formal presentation of works with a discussant providing most of the connecting and critique.

> Also, last year we were able to Skype in a last minute discussant (thanks again to Mike Cole for being so generous). An attempt to video tape the business meeting was also a last minute effort. This year, perhaps we need to broaden our thinking and consider what we might, as a SIG, achieve with the use of technology.

> We would also like to encourage ideas for a professional development session for 2013. Our SIG has held some very successful ones in the past and there is interest in participating in 2013. If you are interested in being a part of the development of a PD course, please contact us and let us know your thoughts whether as potential ‘more knowledgeable’ peer who would be a willing instructor, or drop us a line with an area of interest you would like to have addressed.
