Network Activities

General Activities

The Swedish research school “Quantitative Research Methods in Education (QRM)” funded by the Swedish Research Council offers advanced methods courses for both PhD-student and post-docs free of charge. A major part of the courses has been held online even before the pandemic with one meeting in person to promote network building. QRM also organizes an annual conference in June. Colleagues in Network 9 are welcome to apply. More information about the courses is available at https://www.gu.se/en/qrm.

Future Plans

The network is planning to create a special issue for papers presented at the upcoming ECER.

NW 09 runs a mailing list and invites researchers to join. To join the mailing list, send a blank message to nw09-subscribe(at)lists.eera-ecer.de .
