Nordic Conference on Teacher Education 2016

Theme for the conference is “Nordic teacher education in an international perspective”.

These conferences have been arranged every second year since 1991 in the various Nordic countries.

The conference will have some keynote addresses and several thematically ordered parallel sessions. The keynotes will address different aspects of the main theme of the conference and the various workshops will broaden the scope in different ways according to the participants’ contributions. Contributions within the broad scope of teacher education are welcome; from preschool to university.
