- A Forum for Educators
How can schools, universities and other education-focused organisations engage in partnerships to promote a research culture?

The program is designed to inspire and provoke professional discussion and expand education research networks. Dr Sarah Loch (Pymble Ladies' College) and Professor Nicole Mockler (University of Sydney) will present keynote addresses, while spotlights from a range of presenters on current research partnerships between schools, universities and other organisations will spark ideas for new initiatives. Roundtable discussion sessions will involve all participants in actively sharing research practice in their contexts.
