What does education in action mean to you? This is the question we pose and by doing so, we hope to put the idea of democracy in action into practice. Ultimately, we would like to intentionally broaden the scope of democracy and allow participants to construct their own ideas of democracy. We leave room for interpretation and creative imagination.
This event features 2 days of research presentations and celebrations to recognize the important contributions graduate students are making to the field of education.
A special thank you to the Dean’s Office, YUGSA and FGS who has provided the funding so this conference can be free to graduate students and faculty of Education.
