About the conference

The 21st century offers both threats and challenges to education, particularly within the realm of Social Studies and History Education. Multiple perspectives in this globalised world call for Social Studies educators, researchers and education experts to come up with new approaches and pedagogies suited for current learners and equip them with knowledge and skills to be effective and responsible citizens.

The seminar with the theme Empowering and Engaging 21st Century Learners through Social Studies Education aims to highlight pedagogies for empowerment and engagement. Our schools should be able to surpass mere academic requirements and enable students to critically engage and positively address concerns in this changing society.
