The journal Educational Theory is pleased to invite you to a one-day conference exploring such questions as:
- What values and claims are at stake when parents and students opt out of education?
- How do these claims intersect with public goals for education, including equity?
- How might opting out be understood as a form of dissent, activism and political action?
Guest presenters: Michele Moses (University of Colorado-Boulder), Amy Shuffelton (Loyola University Chicago), Sarah Stitzlein (University of Cincinnati), Ashley Taylor (Colgate University), Quentin Wheeler-Bell (Indiana University-Bloomington), Terrenda White (University of Colorado-Boulder), and Terri Wilson (University of Colorado-Boulder).
