Should I Join AERA?
Yesterday I was singing the praises of WERA, the state-level education research organization.
They are a branch of the American Educational Research Association, AERA for short, best known for the ginormous conference that the put on yearly.

On the other, I’m a classroom teacher, and that sort of puts me on the wrong side of the research-to-practice chasm. Plus, it’s $120 a year.
Anyone out there a member? Does AERA hold any value for the teacher?
