In January 2009, CEPS is organizing its 50th Seminar of the School Field! – Regular monthly meetings of educational researchers, postgraduate students, experts and all others interested in this field began in the spring of 2001; so far, the Seminar has hosted 56 Slovenian and 16 international lecturers. In total, all seminars were attended by nearly 1000 participants, who discussed various topics: from kindergartens to universities, from literacy to employability, from civic education to teacher education, etc., etc.
For the theme of the jubilee fiftieth evening, we have chosen a reflection on the first international results of the TIMSS 2007 survey, which will be presented by Barbara Japelj Pavešić, a researcher from the Pedagogical Institute in Ljubljana and the national coordinator of the TIMSS project. Dr. Mara Cotič, Dr. Ljubica Marjanovič Umek and Dr. Slavko Gaber will join us with their first comments in the introductory part of the evening.
Please allow me to invite you to the anniversary seminar, which will take place on Wednesday, January 21, 2009, starting at 7:00 p.m. in room 026 at the Faculty of Education, University of Ljubljana, Kardeljeva pl. 16, Ljubljana
