Copyright

Copyright of the collection © Australian Association for Research in Education 2002. Each paper is copyright © of the individual author or authors named on each paper.

Disclaimer

The condition of any paper is the responsibility of the author. No editorial actions have been taken on any papers. General instructions for formatting documents so that they convert to HTML accurately were provided for authors to follow, but the compiler of the collection has not examined the resulting files to check their completeness.

Content

This collection was compiled from the papers presented by AARE members registered for the AARE 2002 Conference - Brisbane 2002. Only papers submitted in electronic media are included. Many other papers were presented at the conference. The miss-match between the Abstracts listed in the Abstracts Book and the papers here is due to failure of some authors to submit their work for publication in this format.

Hardcopy Collection

AARE deposits in ACER Library, all hardcopies of papers submitted to the Conference Registration staff. The hardcopy collection is not equal to the list of Abstracts in the Abstracts Book or to the collection of papers on the CD. ACER Library includes all AARE conference papers it receives in the Australian Education Index.

Refereeing

All Abstracts were peer reviewed. In addition some authors requested that their full papers be refereed prior to presentation at the conference. Such papers are indicated by the symbol ® against the paper code in the Abstracts and in the Alphabetic index of papers.

Searching

Author searches or any other key word searching is available within the Abstracts file using an Internet web browser. Papers are distinct files either in html or pdf. Both to allow similar searching within papers and to facilitate users' preferences for file types, printing and so on.

Paper Codes

Paper codes comprise the first 3 letters of the family name of the first author of a paper followed by 2 digits "02" to designate the year of presentation and publication, followed by a 3 digit running number assigned by the conference organisers in order of receipt of the abstracts for presentation proposals, followed by the file type designation [htm or pdf].

AARE

AARE is the premier educational research association in Australia committed among other things to dissemination of educational research. The Association comprises approximately 1,280 individual members who pay an annual subscription to further the work of the Association which includes publication of conference papers, the Australian Education Researcher [journal] and AARE News [newsletter].
