Become the new member of Learn’s research seminar committee!

We are looking an enthusiastic person to join Helene Vos (Learning Sciences) and TuongVan Vu (Educational Neuroscience) and become part of the Learn’s research seminar committee. Each month, we host a speaker from any of the education or related research fields, to provide a talk of interest to the broad Learn! community. To guarantee that the research seminars are of interest to many Learn! members, at the end of last year we installed a committee in which multiple research programs and levels of seniority are represented. The joint committee tasks include:

• Selecting and inviting speakers: ask Learn! members for speaker suggestions and suggest speakers yourself, make a selection for the calendar year (that balances topics, themes and speaker gender) and invite speakers;
• Communicating the seminars via multiple channels to aim for high attendance;
• Writing a brief review/blog about the seminar for the Learn’s newsletter and/or website (optional).

Benefits for seminar committee members are: gaining experience with organisational tasks and valorisation, building and/or strengthening your network within and beyond Learn!, broadening your own knowledge of diverse topics.

If you are interested, please send an email with brief motivation to Nienke van Atteveldt (n.m.van.atteveldt@vu.nl). Any Learn! member can apply.
