Dear colleagues,
We would like to invite you to the National Conference on "Education and social change", organized by the Faculty of Social Sciences of University of Oradea, in collaboration with the C.C.D. Bihor, between 20-21 February 2009.
Argument: The changes that occurred in post communist Romania had a strong impact on all areas related to education: the family, the educational system, and the media. The social context in which students, parents and teachers are working was a subject to significant changes. On the other hand, education itself is a factor that influences these changes. Our conference aims to explore the mutual relationship between school and its social context.
This conference brings together contributions circumscribed to theoretical and empirical domains such as sociology of education and adolescence, psychology of education, educational policies, educational studies, and philosophy of education. Theorists and practitioners in the fields mentioned above are expected to present papers and participate in debates that will be organized in 7 sections:
1. Education and social inclusion. 2. The social impact of changes in contemporary family. 3. Risks and opportunities in adolescence. 4. Social services in the sphere of education. 5. The role of education in knowledge and development of children/students. 6. Recovery and inclusion of school children with special educational special. 7. Communication and education: challenges of a new paradigm. 8. The language of conference is Romanian and English.
The accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings. A selection of conference papers will be published in the „Education and social change" which will be released after the conference.
The registration fee is 100 Ron (30 EUR). The organizers will provide free accommodation for the night of 20-21 February.
