Abstract

The fourth Imagining Better Education conference held at Durham University provided a valuable forum for early career researchers to engage in constructive exchange and scholarly debate on contemporary educational and social issues. The conference was a hybrid event organised by PGR students for PGR students and early career researchers across the social sciences, where we came together to disseminate current research broadly on the conference theme: Imagining Better Education for a Better World. The conference organisers also aimed to champion opportunities for peer support, networking, and training workshops.

Professor Catherine Montgomery delivered the keynote speech, with additional speeches from Professor Jens Beckmann and Professor Prue Holmes. There were 32 presentations by scholars locally and internationally, including contributions from the Universities of Durham, Cambridge, Aberdeen, Glasgow, and Northampton, amongst others.

In total, ten papers make up this proceedings volume. Prompted by the possibilities of a better education for a better world, the papers cover a range of topics, including creativity, interculturalism, social media, reading attainment, and curriculum and pedagogy. The papers are situated within various educational and research contexts, including Britain, China, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Portugal, and Vietnam. The publication process involved two training workshops, as well as two blind peer reviews per paper. The contributions by authors in the proceeding that follows reflects their commitment to Imagining Better Education for all, through rigorous research into relevant issues affecting learners in today’s world.
