Didactics – Learning and Teaching IRN

IRN Start Date: February 1, 2014

This proposal arises from European Educational Research Association (EERA) Network 27 that was established at the ECER 2006 conference in Geneva with the aim of advancing research on didactics - learning and teaching in Europe. A major goal has been to strengthen the field, which has been characterized by its fragmentation and by a diversity of systems and approaches. In searching for common ground the network has sought to re-invigorate the roots of the field by sharing historical perspectives, theoretical frameworks, research methods and research questions in a spirit of creative re-invention as it was founded in the 17th century by J. A. Comenius. The network has established itself strongly in a relatively short period of time in which it has attracted participants from worldwide. Therefore it is now timely to establish it as a WERA-IRN and widen its focus to being fully international.
