Closing Date: January 11, 2016.
The program supports efforts to
bring together scholars whose knowledge, theoretical insight, and
methodological expertise can be assembled in ways that build on and reach
beyond familiar modes of thinking concerning problems in education research,
specifically those related to the area of teaching and learning. Through the
program, the foundation aims to encourage the research community to advance new
and rigorous research in this sub field and to ultimately increase collaboration
within the educational research community.
Conferences should
include a broad set of perspectives on topics or problems in education as they
relate to the profession and practice of teaching or how students learn in
formal and informal spaces. The foundation is particularly interested in
proposals that seek to bridge disciplines, subtopics, or contexts that address
how and what people learn, including fields related to teaching and learning.
For example, scholars of English education might seek to engage in
conversations with science, social studies, mathematics, arts, or additional
discipline specific education researchers in an effort to foster greater
cross-fertilization within the field. Likewise, scholars who explore themes of
culturally relevant or culturally sustaining pedagogy might seek to collaborate
with scholars in content-specific fields in ways that support the development
of research in both areas.
Eligibility:
§
Principal Investigators (PIs) and Co-PIs
applying for a conference grant must have an earned doctorate in an academic
discipline or professional field, or appropriate experience in an education
research-related profession.
§
The PI must be affiliated with a college,
university, school district, non-profit research facility, or non-profit
cultural institution that is willing to serve as the fiscal agent if the grant
is awarded. The Spencer Foundation does not award grants directly to

Proposals are accepted from the U.S. and
internationally, however all proposals must be submitted in English and budgets
