2020 Congress of the Swiss Society for Educational Research

NEW DATES

Monday August 31st to Wednesday September 2nd 2020

University of Teacher Education BEJUNE, Biel

Knowledge at the intersection of research, practices and learning

The 2020 Annual Conference of the Swiss Society for Education Research (SSRE) invites researchers to investigate knowledge situated at the intersection of research, practice and learning in the field of education. It would appear that this type of knowledge falls into a variety of categories, such as knowledge, competencies, abilities, skills, and attitudes in research, practice and education. Linking these various types of knowledge then becomes a central issue in an ever-changing educational context and an accelerating world. Indeed, individuals, groups of individuals and institutions can demonstrate a certain form of resistance and decide a hierarchy between these different types of knowledge. If we consider the shifting, evolving and non-exhaustive nature of knowledge, there is space left for reflection, especially with regard to societal changes.

Due to the current COVID-19 pandemic, the 2020 Congress of the SSRE will now be held online from 31 August to 2 September 2020.

The online conference will keep to the dynamic modalities and scientific formats recommended in the call for papers.

The registration fees have therefore been reduced and the registration deadlines have been extended.

If you have already made the registration payment, you will be refunded the difference in the registration fee.

If you have not paid the registration fee and would like to be included in the Conference programme, please finalise your registration by 5 June 2020.

You also have the possibility to cancel your registration (free of charge). Deadline: 5 June 2020.

Registration deadlines

5 June 2020 for 2nd Early Birds and 15 July 2020 for standard registration.
