Welcome to SCoRE’17
The Research Centre on Didactics and Technology in the Education of Trainers from the University of Aveiro (UA), Portugal, is pleased to announce the 1st edition of Autumn School CIDTFF entitled “SCoRE?17 – Science Communication for Researchers in Education: how to do it successfully”, which will take place from November 5th to 10th, 2017.
Theme
In a world dominated by an economical terminology and discourse, we could say that the research productivity rates are higher than ever. New studies and findings pop up in the news every day and flash travel across the globe through social media, such as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. And yet which studies and which findings?
Education and sustainability are key concepts nowadays, whether they are used separately or as interrelated and interdependent. But do researchers in Education promote the sustainability of their research and findings? To be sustainable, research in Education must be understandable, accessible, applicable and, most important, a topic of discussion out of the closed research community.
Have you ever been asked questions like: What exactly do you do? How does research in Education really works? Is your research project going to change anything? Well, it is time to change that. In this course, participants will have the opportunity to work with experts in Science Communication in order to develop competences that will allow them to turn their research into a society’s matter.
