ADA University in partnership with the Ministry of Science and Education of Azerbaijan and Anthology is delighted to announce the ADA 2023 6th International Education Conference.

The 6th ADA Education Conference is timed to the launch of the ADA Education Center in Gazakh. This landmark has a symbolic meaning and continues strong enlightenment traditions in Azerbaijan.

The 6th ADA Education conference is aimed to reflect on the experience of the consequent waves of enlightenment in our history from the Gory Teacher Seminary (1876-1918) to Gazakh Teacher Seminary (1918-1957), from the education reforms in 1990 after the country gained its independence to the digitalization of education forced by the recent pandemics.

Enlightenment has been a complex movement addressing the tasks relevant to a consequent historical period and proposing rather radical changes in a way we educate and are educated. A digital revolution has started transforming a way we live, work, access information, communicate, teach and learn.

Given new trends and developments in digital technologies and platforms the synergy of transformative power of enlightenment and digitalization would help us in transition from the conventional education to new avenues of online teaching and learning.

This year the 6th ADA Education conference, being an academic forum that brings together scholars, policymakers, independent researchers, educational practitioners and students, highlights the need, in accordance with its title, to rethink the Enlightenment and Digital Revolution experience, address the challenges being faced and contribute to the debates in the educational community.

In line with the areas being under transformation in times of enlightenment and digitalization, ADA Education Conference is seeking for submissions related to the following conference  topics:

o   Teaching and Learning

o   Leadership and Educational Institutions

o   Assessment and Evaluation

o   Life Long Education and Development

o   Teaching Resources and Infrastructure

o   Vocational Education

o   Education Policy, Research and Finance

The Conference is intended to be broad, encompassing panel discussions, presentations of research papers and poster sessions that build on the expansion of the parameters of knowledge production and educational practice in the process of enlightenment and digitalization in education. Authors presenting at the conference will be awarded with certificates and get opportunity to have their full papers published in the conference proceedings.
