Conference Literature

Disclaimer and Terms of Use

The Office of Indian Education believes that research papers presented at conferences fulfill a distinct function in the field of research. Papers presented at conferences represent new practices and emerging trends, and due to the short turnover time, papers can appear at a conference long before, if ever, they are published in a professional journal. Conference papers are also presented in a public forum, lending itself to providing different content and style from articles published in journals.

The Office of Indian Education research website will continue to build its conference paper collection, with the goal of adding 20 papers each year.
