Join our SIG!

Dear Supporters of Bilingual Education,

Special Interest Groups (SIGs) provide a forum within AERA for the involvement of individuals drawn together by a common interest in a field of study, teaching, or research when the existing divisional structure may not directly facilitate such activity. The Association provides the SIG's program time at the Annual Meeting, publicity, scheduling, staff support, viability, and the prestige of AERA affiliation.  

Regular membership shall be open to any individual who is in accord with the stated purpose of the SIG (see ARTICLE II of the SIG Bylaws) and who is an AERA member.  Application for membership shall be made in accord with ARTICLE XII.  The membership year begins on July 1 and ends on June 30. 

"In order to join, please log on to the membership section of AERA by clicking on "Member Login" in the upper left corner of the this page.  On the Members Welcome page, under "Purchases", click on "Special Interest Groups".  Follow the directions to register for SIG membership.  To learn about AERA Membership, please visit the AERA Membership page. Current members may also download a SIG Membership Form.

Active participation in our SIG through presenting and submitting conference proposals for the AERA annual meeting will significantly increase the opportunities we have as scholars of bilingual education to share our research, work, and interests with the AERA general membership.  Please join our SIG and participate in our activities in order to promote Bilingual Education Research and quality education for bilingual learners in the United States and beyond. 

Sincerely,

Bilingual Education Research SIG Officers
