Events

We welcome South-East Queensland postgraduate students in the field of education to The University of Queensland’s School of Education Postgraduate Research Conference on Saturday 23 November. The theme for our 2024 conference is “Voices and Visions”, valuing diverse dialogues and different perspectives in transforming education to meet the needs of an evolving global community.

Join us for an insightful lecture on Quality Teaching Rounds (QTR) professional development, which has shown significant positive effects on both teachers and students over 20 years of rigorous research. Discover how QTR’s focus on pedagogy, careful attention to power dynamics, and strong research backing can help improve teaching quality, teacher morale, and student achievement. In a time of immense pressure on schools and teachers, this talk highlights the urgent need for impactful PD investments.

Join fellow UQ alum at UQ School of Education's celebration of World Teachers' Day QLD. This event is our way of expressing gratitude to teachers around the world who serve as inspirations, motivate, and shape our shared future.

We extend a warm welcome and invite you to the School of Education’s 2023 Postgraduate Research Conference. This year’s theme—Meeting Places—emphasises our responsibility to create spaces for collaboration, community-building, and knowledge-sharing. Meeting Places recognises that learning is not only an individual pursuit but also a social process that occurs within a variety of contexts, including physical classrooms, the natural world, and virtual environments.

This prestigious annual memorial lecture commemorates the life and valuable contribution that our colleague, Carolyn, had generously shared with all of us during her time with the School of Education. This year Associate Professor Sarah Howard will deliver the public lecture on 'Are we in a ‘new’ time?: Navigating AI in Higher Education'.
