Canadian Queer ScholarsThis is a featured page

Greetings! This page is a test site to see if there is interest in building a community of Canadian scholars working on queer studies in education.

Following this year's Canadian Society for the Study of Education conference at UBC in June, a group of us sat down at dinner and bounced around some ideas for building a stronger presence at congress next year. Some ideas that came up were:

-Should we organize a queer studies group within CSSE? If so, at what level?
-Should we organize a pre or post conference event to help scholars connect and share their work?
-How can we better connect and support this work across Canada?

If you have thoughts or suggestions on any of these topics, please respond to the discussion thread. Thank you!

PRE-CONFERENCE CALL FOR PAPERS
(Due Date for Proposals: Friday, January 23, 2009) The Institute for Sexual Minority Studies and Services (iSMSS), an interdisciplinary institute in the Faculty of Education, University of Alberta is pleased to host the inaugural CSSE Pre-Conference on Queer Issues in the Study of Education and Culture at Carleton University, Ottawa, on Friday, May 22, 2009. In this Call for Papers, we invite submissions from scholars and students across disciplines, activists, educators, artists, and others who work on or research queer issues in the study of education and culture. We encourage submissions from the wide-ranging topics presently constituting queer research and practice in education and culture from cross-cultural, historical, policy, comparative, international, and other perspectives. The intention is to cover a diversity of topics, inviting stances and reflections from a variety of temporal, geographical, and interdisciplinary perspectives. We also encourage a variety of type of
submissions, including academic papers from across disciplines, workshops,
creative submissions, performances, storytelling, visual arts, and other alternative formats. Conference presenters will have an opportunity to have their work published in the pre-conference proceedings.

Not enough room here to post the rest of the call, but all the details are on the CSSE website.
