Nordic Education History Conference 2022
Centre for Education Policy Research and Centre for History (The research groups for Knowledge, Sustainability and Heritage (KSH)) invite you to the 8th Nordic Education History Conference hosted by Aalborg University, Denmark. This conference zooms in on the role of education in the transitional history of state and power relations from both local, national and transnational perspectives. Raising historical awareness of these developments and trajectories seems key today in a world where education is often promoted using standards, comparisons and ubiquitous technologies. Historical research in this respect offers the prospect of rewinding our understandings of education and point out all the lost possibilities and alternatives as well as providing sensitivities for understanding resilience, counter-movements and the shifting role of the local and national in a globalized world.
Submission Guidelines
The following paper categories are welcome:
- Panels
Accepted panels are allotted 90-minutes-sessions and typically feature 3-5 panelists with time left for discussion. A panel proposal requires an abstract of no more than 500 words (excluding bibliography) describing the topic and scope of the panel and abstracts of no more than 300 words for each individual paper (excluding bibliography), names and affiliation of the authors, name of discussant (optional). Note that only one author should submit each panel proposal. Our Board of Reviewers will be reviewing the abstract and decide to reject or accept your proposal. The panel proposal should be uploaded as file by clicking on ‘panel description’.
- Individual papers
Individual papers will be allocated 20 minutes for presentation + 10 minutes for questions and discussions. An individual paper submission must contain an abstract of no more than 500 words (excluding bibliography). Our Board of Reviewers will be reviewing the abstract and decide to reject or accept your proposal.
- Posters
Our poster session is an ideal opportunity for Ph.D. students and other early career researchers to show their work in progress. The poster session will be scheduled at a separate time slot during the conference allowing presenters to present and engage in discussion about their posters. The poster session will take place at the spacious and centrally placed open canteen facing the waterfront. Posters will therefore also serve as visuals for people passing by and allow for increased exposure. To register for the poster session, note the title of the poster/your project, affiliated institution and an abstract of no more than 500 words (excluding bibliography) on your topic and areas you would like to receive feedback on. Note that the poster session is based upon registration and will not be reviewed by the Board of Reviewers.
With your permission, we would like to display the panel and individual abstracts as well as pictures of the individual posters at the NEHC2022 website following the conference. This allow people to academically reminisce and refer back to points they heard. Please write Nanna at nre@hum.aau.dk if you do not wish to have your abstract or poster displayed on the NEHC2022.
You will be notified of the status of your abstract by February 1, 2022.
