By bringing together two long-standing EARLI special interest groups SIG 1 “Assessment and Evaluation” and SIG 4 “Higher Education”, the “Joint SIG1 & SIG4 Conference 2020” provides an opportunity to initiate, foster and consolidate synergies and collaborations in research areas present in both communities.
The two communities represent a variety of research interests:
SIG 1 Assessment and Evaluation: Research with a thematic focus on classroom assessment, largescale assessment and program evaluation at all levels of education (from kindergarten to higher education).
SIG 4 Higher Education: Research with a contextual focus on higher education that covers various themes related to learning and instruction as well as academic development.
SIG1 & SIG4 Joint Conference 2020: 3. – 6. September 2020
Location:Universidad de Cádiz, Spain
Organizers:SIGs) SIG 1 (Assessment and Evaluation) and SIG 4 (Higher Education)
Call for Proposals: PDF
Deadline for proposal submission: January 12th
Registration Opening: December 4th
Programm: to be anounced
Website: https://earli.org/SIG1andSIG4-Cadiz2020
Schoars are invited to share their research at our joint conference and to enjoy the special program aimed at encouraging interactions between the two communities and productive discussions within each community. During the conference, a special program track will be dedicated to those contributions that are at the intersection of assessment/evaluation and higher education and thus highlight potential research synergies. Researchers who are interested in assessment topics outside of higher education and scholars studying other phenomena than assessment in higher education are also invited to share their research during the Sig-specific session tracks.
The conference will open new perspectives to each other’s research. In addition, the new session format of “collaborative spaces”, which was successfully introduced during the last SIG 4 conference in 2018, will be incorporated in the schedule. This format aims at creating a platform for exchanging ideas with the potential to explore new research directions and possible collaborations both within and between the two communities. The complementing strengths of both communities will provide a great opportunity to expand our horizons and to learn from each other.
