The ceremony will begin with words of welcome from the State Secretary at the Federal Ministry of Education and Research, Christian Luft, and the President of the Universität Hamburg, Dieter Lenzen.
This year's Opening Ceremony will also include music, the launch of the EERA book "Doing Educational Research - Overcoming Challenges In Practice" published in partnership with SAGE publishing and the presentation of the ERC 2018 Best Paper Award to Sara Franch.
Book Launch: "Doing Educational Research - Overcoming Challenges In Practice"
EERA is proud to announce the publication of the book "Doing Educational Research - Overcoming Challenges In Practice" in partnership with SAGE publishing.
From the SAGE website:
"Every educational research project has challenges and obstacles that need to be managed and overcome. This book uses real case studies employing a wide range of research methodologies and drawn from educational contexts across Europe to explore these challenges offering flexible and universal guidance that you can apply to your own research.
Published in partnership with EERA, this book is:
- Realistic and informed: It explores a range of perspectives on educational research, from planning to data collection to international collaboration
- Challenging: It integrates a holistic and critical view on the process of educational research
- Culturally aware: It covers a variety of research projects from different countries and encourages you to challenge dominant perspectives in education
This is the first major English language textbook for postgraduate and postdoctoral education researchers that represents and explores the range of research traditions that exist throughout Europe and what they mean in practice."
