We are proud to continue the SIG 8’s tradition of organizing a summer school for promising young researchers prior to the conferences.

This year, we are excited to invite applications from both SIGs! The Summer School of SIG 8 and SIG 16 will be held together from the 31st of August to the 2nd of September in beautiful Moritzburg (https://www.kulturlandschaft-moritzburg.de/) near Dresden, Germany. Distinguished scholars will serve as mentors for graduate students at various stages of their educational careers, who conduct research in the fields of motivation and/or metacognition. Don’t miss the chance to discuss your research with leading experts and other graduate students from around the world!

We are pleased to announce that the following teachers have confirmed their participation in the Summer School.

• Roger Azevedo (University of Central Florida, USA)
• Ruth Butler (Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel)
• Eleftheria Gonida (Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece)
• Sabina Kleitman (University of Sydney, Australia)
• Markku Niemivirta (University of Eastern Finland & University of Helsinki, Finland)
