Welcome to the Portfolios and Reflection in Teaching and Teacher Education SIG.  I wish to thank all our devoted members who continue to support the SIG through your membership as well as by  submitting proposals for the  yearly conference. Though small, we continue to contribute in a very important area of Teacher Education. Please continue to  recruit new faculty and graduate students from your various institutions to join us. We are viable with over 75 members but we must continue to enlarge our membership. At AERA this year I was pleased to see quite a large group that joined us for our  SIG reception and meeting. I hope this trend continues as we go forward. Good luck in this coming year as we strive to make this SIG one of the best in the organization.
