Global Chinese Conference on Science Education 2010

The first Global Chinese Conference on Science Education provides opportunities for teachers, educators, scholars and researchers around the globe who are interested in science education in the Chinese communities to discuss and share ideas, practices and recent development in science education. The theme of the conference is "Connecting science education to the contemporary world”.

The conference focuses on research and development of science curriculum, teaching and assessment practices in primary, secondary and tertiary science education. We anticipate to involve science educators and school science teachers from different parts of the world (e.g. Mainland, Taiwan, Macau, Singapore, Europe, the USA & Hong Kong) to exchange research work and best practices. There will be workshops and seminars for sharing of concerns and experiences in the learning, teaching and assessment of science, which are relevant to the needs and development of the science education community around the world. In order to facilitate sharing and communication in the conference, presentations in English, Putonghua and Cantonese are welcomed.
