Welcome to the AARE's collection of papers presented at the 2004 Conference at Melbourne.
Here you will find over 500 papers from the Melbourne conference.

Abstracts

This is a large file that contains all the abstracts for the electronically published papers. Each abstract for which there is a paper, links to the relevant PDF file.

Alphabetical Index of paper codes.

This is a much shorter file that has all the relevant paper codes in alphabetical order. Use this if you know the code for which you seek.

Copyright

Copyright of the collection © Australian Association for Research in Education 2005. 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.

Content

This collection was compiled from the papers presented by AARE members registered for the AARE 2004 Conference - Melbourne. 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 Cunningham 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 and AARE website. ACER Cunningham 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 on this CD and the AARE website. Note: Since the papers are not edited AARE does not add ® to the actual 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 in pdf.

Paper Codes

Paper codes comprise the first 3 letters of the family name of the first author of a paper followed by 2 digits "04" to designate the year of presentation and publication, followed by a 3 or 4 digit running number assigned by the conference organisers in order of receipt of the abstracts for presentation proposals, followed by the file type designation [.pdf].
