Research making a difference in the classroom: ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Teacher Conference
The inaugural ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Teacher Network Conference is dedicated to teachers and teacher-researchers, and will spotlight the transformative power of educational research in educational practice.
The conference aims to highlight the interconnected nature between educational research and classroom practice, celebrating innovative ideas and evidence-based approaches to enhance teaching and learning. Attendees will explore how research is at the heart of educational improvement and will get introduced to research that is practice-based. They will also hear success stories from across education phases and settings and engage in discussions on the role of research in addressing pressing classroom challenges.
Join us as we bring together educational researchers, teachers from primary, secondary, and further education, teacher-researchers, and leaders to empower classrooms and educational contexts with meaningful, impactful insights.
