| About Keynote Speech |
| In many schools and universities new approaches to teaching and learning are being introduced. They aim to educate students to think independently, critically, and deep about societal problems and to keep learning and developing during their professional lives. They intent to enable graduates to work independently and collaboratively with others, contribute to understanding and solving complex problems, and communicate with professionals from other disciplines and with practitioners. Problem-based learning, project-based learning, personalized learning pathways, flipped classrooms, phenomenal learning and challenge-based learning are just a few educational innovations that have been adopted to help students to attain these aims through better learning: more active, deep, self-regulated, intrinsically motivated, collaborative, interdisciplinary, meaning-oriented and application-oriented learning. Innovations like these require very different teacher roles than many are used to, such as tutor, skills assessor, problem designer, digital teacher, and coach of students’ learning, problem solving and collaboration processes. Often teachers are struggling with these new roles. In this keynote I will focus on how teachers learn to keep up with the challenges of 21st century teaching and learning. What approaches to teacher learning are more beneficial than others? What personal and contextual factors influence patterns in teachers’ learning? What approaches to teacher professional development are most powerful to bring about productive teacher learning? I will use exiting new research in these areas of the learning sciences to try to achieve a better understanding of teacher professional learning in the context of innovations in education. |

| About Keynote Speech |
| This keynote gives a fresh look at the heritage of educational psychology and introduces some latest advances in the field: the accumulation of research demonstrates how motivation, emotions, social interaction and learning intertwine in the process of education. Students’ self-efficacy, engagement and motivation are the key issues that determine the learning outcomes. Educational psychology does not say how teachers are supposed to teach, but it informs about why some approaches to teaching and learning are more efficient that the others. Many people think that research-based teaching refers only to the contents of learning that base on reliable research. This is true, of course, but even more, research-based teaching is about the processes of learning. What is the nature of knowledge; how do we learn (or come to know something)? Even more, how can we create something new together? When we design new approaches to teaching and learning in the digital era, we need to understand some fundamentals about the cultural psychology as well. Technology increasingly mediates learning. Technology does not change anything, however, if we are not constantly developing new approaches to teaching and learning, based on deep understanding of how students learn and what motivates them. Our latest research is very much questioning many assumptions about digitalization and learning that are common among laypeople. Teacher learning is essential here: teachers need to rise above the laypeople thinkin. I shall present five fundamental findings that challenge our beliefs about the nature of learning in the digital era. |

Her research activity and publications focus on early career researcher writing and identity development and she had offered many keynotes, workshops and seminars and published more than 250 scientific contributions on these topics. |
| About Keynote Speech |
| To what extent should universities educate their students as future researchers, and how this education relates to their development as writers? When, how and why to encourage and facilitate students’ research writing? Through this keynote, I will discuss these issues looking at the contradictions underlying the intersection between academic, research and professional writing and reflect on some answers and their associated consequences, according to recent empirical evidence. I will first address the situation of research-related writing genres in Higher Education. Then, I will focus on the challenges that both students and future researchers, as well as their teachers and supervisors, face when they deal with these genres. Finally, I will discuss some pedagogical proposals that proved valuable to help students to develop their researcher voice and sense of authorship, as well as to dialogue with other voices of their disciplinary, cultural or social communities. |

She co-coordinates the Feed2learn Research Group On the webpage you will find more information on her recent publications, presentations, and projects. |
| About Keynote Speech |
|
Research on feedback has evolved over the past few years, confirming the need for students to use the feedback they receive as a key element for learning. However, different studies show that despite the power of feedback, students do not use it. What are the main factors that influence students’ engagement with feedback, and specifically in online education? What are the main strategies, based on research evidence, can we promote to foster learning through feedback in online learning environments? What should be the role of the teacher and the student? Engagement is a complex and multidimensional concept, and the main studies agree to define it in three dimensions (emotional, behavioural, and cognitive engagement). This keynote will address the main challenges and strategies to engage students with feedback, from a techno-pedagogical design of learning activities to the factors (such as previous experience, and motivation) that contribute to students’ engagement in online education. |

Maria Cerrato Lara is a lecturer at Universidad Internacional de la Rioja (UNIR) and Universidad Isabel I (UI1). She also collaborates at Universitat Carlemany (UCMA) and Universitat Abat Oliba (UAO CEU). Maria is passionate about helping student teachers become better teachers. Since she did her PhD focused on Doctoral Education, she also loves helping PhD students in becoming better researchers. Therefore, she delivers workshops addressed to doctoral students and thesis directors. Some of the institutions where she has offered her services at PhD level are MIT, Harvard University, University of Oxford, Aalto University, etc. Currently she collaborates in Kenkolab, as she is very interested in helping schools and families in fostering healthy screen time. She also participates in the research project 2021INDOV00009 #ChallengingTikTok, at Universitat de Barcelona, where she analyses teenagers’ perceptions of the different forms of gender violence and the normalization of sexist behavior in social network. |
| About Workshop |
| Schools report experiencing difficulties when having to advise families about healthy screen time: "what shall we say/suggest as educators?" -they wonder. In this study we analysed three focus groups -addressed to heads, parents and teachers- in order to explore perceptions and beliefs about healthy screen time. With this purpose in mind, we also asked our subjects to answer a questionnaire. This mixed study allowed us not only to analyse how far/close were their statements from the paediatrics guidelines, but also how to bring them closer to our subjects. For this last matter, we organized a training for them adapted to their needs. In our workshop, we will present the tips (“solutions”) we shared with them in this training in order to foster healthy screen time for children aged 0-15. Our study was supported by Kenkolab (https://www.kenkolab.org/), which will be presented as well during the workshop. |
