ATEE - Spring Conference 2020

May 20 - 22, 2020

Florence, Italy

Deadline: January 15, 2020

In 2020 the ATEE Spring Conference will be hosted by the University of Florence. As a main theme, the

Conference will take a critical perspective on the role of digital technology and media in teacher education by framing the relationship between technology/media and education in the light of the ever-increasing social inequalities. From this standpoint the Conference will focus on the new challenges and growing demands on education system committed to addressing all forms of disparities in access, participation and learning outcomes, social exclusion and discrimination. A critical approach to the understanding of the implications of technological developments for education is particularly significant in a world dominated by algorithms that are increasingly controlling and regulating the extent to which people do or do not participate in the social life. The central focus of this conference is the relevance of these critical perspectives and approaches in the field of teacher education's research and practice.

Main sub-themes are:

• Teaching critical media/digital literacy in multicultural societies.
• Decommodifying teacher (digital) education.
• Digital technology and equity for inclusive teaching.

We are pleased to invite you to submit an abstract to ATEE Spring Conference 2020.
