SUMMARY:2026 Annual Brown Lecture: Admitted But Not Equal
DESCRIPTION:Join AERA for the 2026 Annual Brown Lecture in Education Research\, featuring Daniel Solórzano\, Professor of Education and Chicana/o and Central American Studies\, and director of UCLA’s Center for Critical Race Studies in Education at UCLA Ed&IS. \n\n\n\nWhat does it mean to be admitted to a university but still denied the opportunity to attend as an equal? \n\n\n\nIn the 2026 Brown Lecture\, Daniel G. Solórzano examines that question through the story of George W. McLaurin\, an educator who\, at 54 years old\, became the first Black student admitted to the University of Oklahoma in 1948. Although McLaurin was permitted to enroll in its doctoral program in educational administration\, the university segregated him from his white classmates—in the classroom\, library\, cafeteria\, and other spaces across campus. \n\n\n\nDrawing on archival research and the scholarship of pioneering legal scholar Derrick Bell\, Solórzano explores McLaurin’s challenge to the university’s treatment of him\, culminating in the landmark 1950 Supreme Court case McLaurin v. Oklahoma State Regents. He recovers McLaurin’s fuller story as an educator\, husband\, and father and considers what his experience—and the decision that helped lay the groundwork for Brown v. Board of Education—reveals about the difference between gaining access to an institution and attending as an equal. \n\n\n\nAt a time when questions about racial inequality and equal opportunity remain deeply contested\, the lecture assesses how patterns of exclusion can persist within educational institutions even after formal legal barriers have been removed—and what McLaurin’s legacy asks of researchers\, educators\, and policymakers today. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n  Register Now

SUMMARY:The Power of Connection in Adolescence: Reimagining Schools and Communities for Connected Learning
DESCRIPTION:Adolescence is an important developmental period for connected learning. Inclusive environments\, expanded opportunities\, and meaningful relationships can help diverse learners build connections (within neural and social bonds) as they learn\, belong\, and grow. The 2026 UC|CSU Collaborative Summit brings together educators\, faculty\, administrators\, and researchers in child development to explore how schools and communities can strengthen the social and relational skills that support learning\, well-being\, and future success for adolescents with individual learning differences. \n\n\n\nThe Summit is focused on two tracks: one on “From School to Community: Redesigning Inclusive 6-16 Learning Environments.” and one on “From Access to Agency: Building Digital Equity and Well-Being for Diverse Learners.” Each session features a moderated discussion with developmental scientists and practitioners in education or behavioral/mental health to connect research evidence with real-world practice. Ultimately\, the Summit aims to strengthen the capacity of grade 6-12 and higher education educators\, health professionals\, and system leaders to support the whole adolescent and expand opportunity for all adolescent learners. \n\n\n\n\n  Register Now!

SUMMARY:State of Crisis 2026: Linking New Research to Funding for California Students Experiencing Homelessness
DESCRIPTION:Nearly 300\,000 California K–12 students experienced homelessness in the 2024–25 school year\, the highest level on record. A new report from the UCLA Center for the Transformation of Schools — State of Crisis 2026: A Deepening Crisis of Students Experiencing Homelessness Across California — examines persistent geographic and racial disparities in student homelessness and gaps in attendance\, academic achievement\, graduation\, and college-going outcomes. \n\n\n\nJoin UCLA CTS and the National Center for Youth Law for a webinar exploring key findings from the report and California’s historic $116 million investment in supporting students experiencing homelessness. Speakers will discuss strategies for strengthening student supports\, improving cross-system coordination\, and building sustainable infrastructure\, alongside a proposed study examining how districts implement the funding and its impact on student experiences and educational outcomes. \n\n\n\nThis is a virtual event hosted on Zoom. \n\n\n\n\n  Register

SUMMARY:Critical Quantitative Methodology: Identifying and Remediating Racial (and Other) Forms of Measurement Bias with MIMIC Models
DESCRIPTION:The Developmental Science Research Collaborative is hosting a talk by Dr. Matthew A. Diemer\, Chair of Combined Program in Education and Psychology and Professor of Educational Studies in the Marsal Family School of Education at the University of Michigan. \n\n\n\nAbstract:  \n\n\n\nSound measurement is foundational to quantitative methodology in education and the social sciences. However\, the racist history of quantitative methodology and measurement has led some to the conclusion that these approaches are irredeemable. Instead\, acknowledging this history and repurposing quantitative methodology leads toward a more equitable\, anti-racist\, and critical quantitative perspective. \n\n\n\nThis presentation will explore measurement within the Critical Quantitative (CritQuant) framework. CritQuant is anchored by five guiding principles (i.e.\, foundation\, goals\, parity\, subjectivity\, and self-reflexivity) to mitigate racism (and/or other systems of oppression) and advance social justice. \n\n\n\nWithin the CritQuant framework\, MIMIC (Multiple Indicator and MultIple Causes) models help researchers enact equity-oriented measurement by testing for latent mean differences and item intercept differences (i.e.\, DIF\, or ‘differential item functioning’) across identity groups. These are important questions in educational and developmental sciences\, such as whether a measure of perceived discrimination is equally precise across groups. By providing more fair measurement\, this approach positions researchers to contribute to more equitable scholarship\, policy\, and practice. \n\n\n\nNote: The Journal of Research on Educational Effectiveness paper accompanying this talk is available via https://osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/8thpu_v1.
