辦理IEA第三屆國際研究研討會(IRC 2008)

Abstract

辦理本研討會之目的是針對國際教育評量協會主導各項跨國研究所探討的教育相關議題提供一個國際性的公開討論場合。藉著這樣的公開討論，激盪出與會研究者間具創造性的對話，讓與會成員能更深入瞭解教育對於國家和個人發展所扮演的多元角色。另一方面，辦理此研討會得以讓國內參與IEA國際研究團隊藉此機會發表研究成果，與國際學者交換意見後，進而將撰寫論文發表於國際期刊。本次研討會舉辦時間為民國97年9月16日至20日共五天：為期三天研討會正式開始前，IEA也特別規劃兩天的「跨國研究資料庫二次分析工作坊」；藉此工作坊訓練教育研究者利用IEA國際研究大型資料庫進行教育相關議題的跨國比較。預計參加成員250名，國內學者保留名額100名。

The IRC-2008 Conference, which will run on 18-20, Sep., 2008, aims to provide an international forum for the exchange of ideas and information on important educational issues investigated through IEA research. With its objective to foster creative dialogue among researchers, it aims to provide greater understanding of the numerous roles that education plays in the development of nations and in shaping individuals. On the other hand, the local researchers involved in IEA international studies (i.e. PIRLS, TIMSS and SITES) might be encouraged to present their findings in this conference. A two-day pre-conference workshop about secondary analysis of IEA international study databases will be conducted by Data Processing Center of IEA. The number of participants designated for this conference is 250 and 100 is reserved for local researchers.
