Aims and Scope
The International Conference on Education Research (ICER) is an opportunity for academics, practitioners and consultants from around the world who are involved in the study, management and development of education research related issues to come together and exchange ideas. There are several strong strands of research and interest that are developing in the area including the use of technology in teaching and learning, active learning and student engagement, assessment and feedback, curriculum design and delivery, inclusive teaching and learning and teaching for social justice to mention only a few.

The aims of the conference now not only include sharing academic research but also fostering dialogue among practitioners, policymakers, and scholars to address pressing issues facing organizations and institutions today.
