About our SIG

S-STEP is a special interest group (SIG) of the American Educational Research Association.

 We act as a forum for educators who work in a wide variety of settings and who are seeking to make substantial contributions related to the theory and practice of teacher education, self-study research design/practice, and the professional development of teacher educators. We are always very active at the AERA Annual Meetings. The SIG-sponsored social events and annual business meeting give members opportunities to meet one another and discuss issues of self-study design, publishing, ethics, and best practice.

If you consider yourself to be a teacher educator and if you want opportunities to interact with other teacher educators who are working on the problems of education through the study of their own practices, we may be the SIG for you!

Our SIG works under specific bylaws.
