EUROSTUDENT IV Final Conference

Transcription

1 EUROSTUDENT IV Final Conference 15 th 16 th June 2011 in Copenhagen, Denmark Closing the gap New data on the social dimension of higher education in Europe, with a public debate on Danish higher education in the light of EUROSTUDENT General concept and way of working We aim to provide an insightful and interactive review of the new results from the EUROSTUDENT IV data set. This means that we will provide input for discussion and allow room for debate. In the Blocks A and B of the programme the presentations will take no longer than 15 minutes. They will be followed by at least 15 minutes of discussion. To facilitate these discussions every presentation will finish with between three and five questions. These questions are proposed by the presenter for a debate with the conference participants. During the conference we will also note down questions raised by conference participants. As it is not always possible to pose questions during a session, we will have a question stall in the breaks, where questions can be noted down following the discussions. These questions will be dealt with at the start of the next session, e.g. questions raised in the break after Block A will be dealt with at the start of Block B. We have chosen this way of working in order to gain as much from participants experience and expertise as possible!
