2026 Winter Conference
Science and mathematics education in the digital era
University of Minho, Braga, Portugal
The Association for Teacher Education in Europe (ATEE) Winter Conference 2026 will focus on science and mathematics education in the digital era. It will provide a platform for scholars worldwide to reconceptualize, recontextualize, and discuss conventional topics in science and mathematics education research in light of the digital paradigm, as well as to share and realistically discuss the emerging ones, considering their potential, limitations, and possible threats. Additionally, as several countries are faced with the threat of teacher shortage, research on ways to attract students to science and mathematics, and teachers (including pre-school teachers) to the profession will be very welcome. Research addressing the value, challenges, and pitfalls of the digital age for developing students, preschool teachers, school and university teachers, and other citizens’ scientific literacy and numeracy, as well as for designing curriculum materials, will be welcome too.
The conference theme encompasses a diversity of issues ranging from teachers (of all school levels, from pre-school to university), students, and curriculum materials, to teaching approaches and assessment, and technology-based interdisciplinary STEM education for diverse and inclusive classrooms, and a sustainable future. Participants will have the opportunity to present, share, and discuss research on timely and relevant issues for the benefit of education and the strength of the international community of science and mathematics education.

2018 Winter Conference
Technology and innovative learning
Utrecht, The Netherlands, 15-16 February 2018
[wpgmza id=”19″]
Teachers and teacher educators are increasingly challenged to rethink their educational practices and align them with the needs of contemporary teenagers.
Furthermore, educational researchers are faced with the complex task of studying the use of digital technology in innovative learning environments. The ambition of the 2018 Winter Conference was to combine empirical research findings with experience from practice by sharing tools, hands-on examples and teaching methodology. By doing so, we aimed to enhance the learning experience of both regular and refugee students.
The 2018 Winter Conference was focused on the critical years of learning and development during secondary and higher education.
// Sub-themes
Teacher Education & Digital Technology
This sub-theme of the conference concentrates on conceptual, theoretical and empirical research related to digital technologies in (school) education, primarily through the spectrum of teacher education.
Professional Development of Teachers
We encourage researchers to share findings or discussion topics that contribute to insights in various ways of professional development of teachers. We especially welcome contributions that relate to the use of technology and the creation of innovative learning environments
Refugee Education
Today, only 14% of young people in poor countries complete their studies up to higher education. We hope this conference theme on refugee education will bring necessary awareness as to how the role of teachers and teaching needs to evolve.
