In memoriam Monica Rosén

2.6.1962 - 29.08.2024

As several of you are aware, yesterday Monica Rosén fell ill very suddenly. She was immediately attended to on site and rushed to the nearby hospital for treatment. Unfortunately, she passed away earlier this morning, Thursday, 29 August 2024. Sincerest condolences go to her husband Anders, sons Einar and August and her extended family, colleagues from the University of Gothenburg as well as all her friends and close colleagues at ECER 2024 and across the world.

For ECER 2024 participants, there will be a book for condolences from Friday onwards in the lobby of Levenits.

The curriculum as ‘folding’ democratic practice
13 November 2024, 9:00 am
Dr Nashid Nigar & Professor Alex Kostrogriz

Drawing on Deleuze, Dewey, and Bill Green’s “curriculum as practice,” our research introduces the concept of “curriculum as ‘folding’ democratic practice”. This holistic, fluid, and processual approach, premised on the lived experiences of 16 immigrant EAL teachers, underscores the need for a more responsive and democratic educational framework.

Towards reconnecting within and beyond the educational research community in Serbia
30 October 2024, 9:00 am
Olja Jovanovic, Dragica Pavlovic Babic, Dejana Mutavdzin

The educational research association of Serbia (ERAS) stands out for its advocacy of interdisciplinary collaboration, welcoming experts from diverse fields interested in educational research. We wonder whether, together with EERA, we can rewrite the narrative of ‘balkanisation’, turning it from a tale of fragmentation into one of collaboration and reconnection. Hence, the theme of the ECER 2025 is Charting the Way Forward. We are looking forward to welcoming you in Belgrade!
