<span style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: rgb(255,255,255)"><i>The Ethnography in Education Research Forum, convened by the Center for Urban Ethnography at the University of Pennsylvania every year since 1980, is the largest annual meeting of qualitative researchers in
education. The Forum has from the beginning excelled in nurturing ethnographic research and researchers in schools. The Forum is known for its friendly and supportive atmosphere for fledgling researchers and for the spirit of relaxed and open dialogue embracing
newcomers and experienced researchers alike. Areas of emphasis include: multicultural issues in education, practitioner/teacher/action research, critical and feminist ethnography, ethnographic evaluation in education, language issues in education, uses of
ethnography in math and science, and indigenous language revitalization.</i></span></p>

<i>The Ethnography Forum is internationally recognized for its encouragement of original and in-depth ethnographic research on education, youth, and children. The Forum welcomes scholars at all career stages seeking a supportive venue for sharing their ethnographic
work at various stages of development. A longstanding trademark of the Forum is student involvement, both in conference coordination and participation. The Forum provides a space for ethnographers to come together across generations to share and learn from
each other and, in so doing, to become part of a broader community of ethnographers interested in education, child, and youth studies.</i></p>

at this year’s Forum, for her dedication to the Forum as well as her significant scholarly contributions to the fields of Educational Linguistics and Educational Ethnography. We have invited Dr. Hornberger’s close colleagues, Teresa McCarty and Luis Moll to
be among the plenary speakers. Several of Dr. Hornberger’s students are organizing special panels. These invited sessions will highlight ethnographic work in the scholarly fields to which she has contributed, including: bilingualism and multi-literacies;
indigenous education; immigrants, refugees and language diversity; and language education policy.</i></span></div>

<i id="DWT2279">The theme of this year’s Forum resonates with developments across these areas of research, asking us to consider theoretical and methodological issues in the study of mobility through migration, cultural and linguistic hybridity and multiplicity
within immigrant and indigenous populations, and the emergence of new types of media and forms of multimodality. What new theoretical horizons and methodological opportunities arise in studying emergent, shifting, and hybrid forms—linguistic and cultural—within
the everyday lives of immigrant and indigenous youth? And what does the study of these forms contribute to the field of educational ethnography as well as to educational policy and practice? Papers may speak either to the theme of the Forum or to other issues
relevant to education, child, and youth studies. </i></p>
