We invite scholars, researchers, educators, and graduate students in the field of education to submit proposals for an academic research presentation, panel or round-table discussion, or poster session on the importance of experiential learning in education. Hands-on learning with reflection warrants a closer investigative look as it helps students better connect knowledge learned in the classroom with real-life experiences.
We welcome all kinds of topics related to this theme, including but not limited to language teaching, teacher training, primary education, secondary education, technical education, assessment, policy, and more.
Please submit an abstract of no more than 150 words with a title of no more than 15 words by the deadline. See below for an example submission.
DEADLINE: APRIL 15, 2025
