The 5th Annual Research & Evaluation of Adventure Programming (REAP) Symposium is a joint effort between the Association for Experiential Education and Project Adventure.
The purposes of the REAP Symposium:
* To advance the adventure programming field through the production of evidence-based practices and related research
* To connect funding sources with programs/researchers
* To involve a wide group of people in an ongoing dialogue about evidence-based research and practices
AEE supports this effort as part of our mission to promote research and evaluation in experiential practices through technology, education and networking opportunities.

AEE’s 8th Annual Symposium on Experiential Education Research (SEER)
SEER provides a structured forum at AEE’s Annual International Conference for presentations and discussion about research in the field. Presentations are made by scholars from around the world who have been invited through a blind peer-review process. The symposium is composed of four, 90-minute blocks of time during which researchers make 15-minute presentations. Presenter/audience interaction and feedback is encouraged, and noted researchers and scholars provide commentary. SEER’s goal is to provide a venue to develop the knowledge base in experiential education.
To quote one of the field’s leading researchers and former SEER Co-Chair Keith Russell: “As the experiential education field continues to grow and evolve in a social, political, and economic context of evidence-based programming and practice, research will play a vital role in helping maintain and further the mission of experiential education in helping children, youth, families and communities develop their fullest human potential.”
