ABSTRACT REVIEW PROcess

All abstracts for Symposiums are subject to a peer-review process by members of the Association, facilitated by SIG Convenors. The review process is intended to:

  • Ensure rigour and quality of research within the conference presentations.
  • Support alignment with specific SIGs and the conference theme.

Abstracts will be reviewed using the following criteria:

  • Relevance to educational research
  • Contribution to particular research field/s
  • Clarity of writing and appropriate language use
  • Relevance to identified SIG.

The Reviewer will make one of the following decisions:

  • Accept as is
  • Accept, with editing required for clarity
  • Accept, with suggestions for strengthening prior to presentation
  • Rejected on basis of not satisfactorily meeting the stated review criteria.

Where there is a discrepancy between the reviewers, the SIG Convenor(s) and Conferences Standing Committee Chair will adjudicate for a final decision.

Considerations around Research Involving Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander Peoples

AARE has committed to ensuring that its activities support and/or contribute to the transformative processes of decolonisation, emancipation and empowerment of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and communities.

Please ensure you are aware of the potential effects of research on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and communities by reading the Considerations Around Research Involving Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples document.  Please also consult the AIATSIS Code of Ethics for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Research (2020) where relevant.
