After the organization of seven successful annual international 
conferences (see *previous conferences

Conference on Education (EDU2021) aims to provide an opportunity for 
academics, professionals, and industry experts from various fields, with 
cross-disciplinary interests, to discuss future directives and 
innovations in Education.

This year, apart from our face-to-face conference, we also propose and 
promote online participation, as some countries/participants might still 
face travel restrictions. Even if remote participation will only require 
half the normal registration fee, we will do our best to provide 
participants with equal opportunities to exchange, share, and 
communicate, as with F2F participants.

The conference topics include, but are not limited to, the following areas:
bilingual education, identity and education, educational psychology, 
teaching approaches, teacher and student, education strategy, teacher 
education, educational foundations, online education, education 
technology, special education, teaching methodology, art education/art 
therapy, bilingual education, computer education, early childhood 
education, elementary education, secondary education, higher education, 
multicultural education, science education, educational psychology, 
educational foundations, health education, career and technical 
education, adult education, business education, education leadership, 
ethical issues in education, diversity and equality in education, 
cross-disciplinary areas of education, and life-long learning education. 
Topics are broadly defined, but not limited to the above.

This year, participants can propose either a traditional paper 
presentation, or an alternative presentation format, such as a 
laboratory, workshop, or roundtable discussion. Please find *here
