The fourth annual SAA Research Forum was held Tuesday, August 12, 2010, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., at the Marriott Wardman Park. The forum explored the full spectrum of research activities – from "pure" research to applied research to innovative practice. Researchers, practitioners, educators, and students used the forum to discuss, debate, plan, organize, evaluate, or motivate research projects and initiatives.
