2015 Taiwan International Conference


To continue pursuing its mission for outreach and exchange of scholarly discussion, CAERDA will hold its Second International Conference outside the United States during June 24-26, 2015 in Taichung City, Taiwan. Due to its geographic location and being the economic center of over six million people in central Taiwan, Taichung City earned its name as "Heart of Taiwan". Taichung City is a cosmopolitan city that fuses business, culture, and leisure. In recent years, Taichung City has continually built itself as a "City of Creativity, Capital of Living" with the grant opening of the National Opera House in November 2014 and has played a vital role in moving Taiwan toward the center of the world stage.

The theme of the 2015 International Conference is "Advancing Scientific Research in Education." The current demand in education reform calls for evidence-based practice to maximize educational outcomes, a notion that requires development of educational policies and practices based on scientifically rigorous research. In the United States, federal legislations such as the No Child Left Behind Act and the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act drive a growing emphasis for the implementation of scientifically based instructional strategies and practices. In Asian countries, more and more scientifically based education research has emerged and been emphasized by stakeholders, such as government, educators, and parents. Evidence-based education is believed to be key to quality education. This conference theme aims to stimulate discussion on what constitutes high-quality scientific inquiry into education, how to advance accumulation of scientific knowledge, and how to spur actions that will advance scientific research in education.
