Abstract Submission Guidelines

We warmly welcome abstract submissions from teacher educators, researchers and doctoral students whose topics are related to teacher education.

Abstracts can only be submitted using the online registration and abstract submission form.

 

The deadline for submission is 28th February 2023.

 

Two different types of contributions will be accepted for the Conference: research focused and development focused abstracts, with different evaluation criteria. The research focused abstracts discuss the research findings. The development focused abstracts are devoted to educational development or innovation and describe the development and assessment of relatively new educational initiatives.

 

The conference provides two different ways for participants to present their work:

Oral presentations: Traditional oral presentations with power points slides to the conference participants.

Posters presentations: The space for posters is limited by the venue and it is necessary to submit an abstract for review to be assigned a poster space.

When uploading your abstract, please indicate the format (presentation or poster) in which you would like to present your work.
