August 28-31
Sofia, Bulgaria
The 5th International Conference on Comparative Education, Teacher Training and New Education Agenda organized by the Bulgarian Comparative Education Society will be held in Sofia, 28-31 August 2007. It is planned to be held in the week just before the 13th World Congress of the World Council of Comparative Education Societies in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, 3-7 September 2007 in order to
give participants an excellent opportunity for combining both events.
The conference objectives are:
(1) to examine different approaches to the role of Comparative Education as a science, research methodology, and academic discipline;
(2) to develop linkages with colleagues who work in various teacher training programs at universities, colleges, and institutes around the world;
(3) to outline prospects for the development of education policy at the institutional, regional, national and international level;
(4) to discuss new practices and reforms in preschool, primary, secondary and higher education.
The idea of organizing the 5th BCES Conference in the week before the 13th World Congress giving participants the opportunity to move from Sofia to Sarajevo is coordinated with the WCCES President, Prof. Mark Bray, and the World Congress main organizer, Adila Kreso.
Conference format
The Conference is purposefully planned to be a small and high-quality international event. The small conference format aims to give participants a friendly, homey and cozy environment providing excellent opportunities for contacts, presentations and discussions. The conference capacity can meet a maximum number of 90 participants. The registration will be closed even before the deadline if the number of registered participants reaches 90.
Language and equipment
The Conference language is English. All presentations and discussions are in English. Internet connection, overhead projectors (for transparencies) and digital projectors with computers (for PowerPoint presentations) are available.
