Teaching
The staff of the Center for Empirical Research in Inclusion hold courses as part of various curricula at the University of Graz, with a particular focus on participation in the teacher training curricula (Bachelor's and Master's). In this way, current topics of inclusion and digitalisation, findings on inclusive teaching and evidence-based materials generated through research are made accessible to future teachers.
Lecture Series "Theoretical Foundations, Concepts and Encouraging Examples of Inclusive Education"
This lecture series organised by CERI is dedicated to the topic of inclusion from an interdisciplinary and international perspective and highlights key principles, areas of tension and developments across the entire lifespan – from early childhood through school and extracurricular education to the world of work, housing and old age. Inclusion is examined as a key social and educational policy issue from a global and life-span perspective.
The aim of the lecture series is to reflect on and discuss fundamental concepts, international developments, areas of tension and encouraging practical examples of inclusive education.
Each unit comprises two short lectures by renowned international experts and an interactive part in which the content is explored in greater depth through discussions, transfer questions or interactive exercises. The lecture series will take place online. Only the lecture on 3 of december 2025 will also be in presence at Merangasse 70, 8010 Graz, on the ground floor in room 33.0.010. Each unit will also be streamed and recorded.
