AEA-Europe Newsletter: call for contributions

The AEA-Europe Publications and Communications Committee would like to make a call for contributions for the Association’s newsletter. The Newsletter is published twice a year, in the Spring and Autumn, with deadline dates in mid-February and mid-August. We would like help from members to make the information as up to date and relevant as possible. In particular we would like the following:

• Articles for the Work in progress section. These should be a maximum of 500 words long and be formatted under the headings "Context", "What is happening", "Why inform members" and "More information" (brief details of a website or references). Please see previous newsletters for more information.
• Articles for the Doctoral students' Work in progress section. These should also be 500-600 words long and follow a similar format, covering the research and the context, with some details of methodology, potential impacts or directions.
• What's new section: Information on conferences and courses at master and PhD-level. For conferences we need to know: Title, date, place, website address. For courses at master and PhD-level we would like information on courses relating to assessment open to international students, bearing in mind any language constraints. We will need the name of the institution, the title for the course in your own language as well as in English, plus dates, town, country, website or a contact address.
• Members' news: any information on new appointments, promotions, etc.

We would also like some additional AEA-Europe national representatives who would be willing to send information about recent developments in assessment in their countries and approach relevant people to contribute to the Work in progress section. Please let Julie (e-mail address below) know if you would be interested in this role. We already have some volunteers but need more!
