Simonetta Polenghi is Professor of History of Education and Head of the Department of Education at Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore in Milan. She is also President of the Italian Society of Pedagogy (SIPED) and member of the Executive Committee of the International Standing Conference for History of Education (ISCHE). In her lecture entitled Internationalization and Evaluation Policies: Research Approaches in Italian History of Education, Simonetta Polenghi will refer to the ways in which Italian research in the History of Education has changed over the past 25 years, redirecting from the history of educational ideas and of school education to areas involving the use of new archives and sources and the adoption of interdisciplinary approaches. Professor Polenghi attempts to link the scientific results to internationalization and official evaluation policies.
The Greek Society of Education Historians (GSEH) was founded in 2001 and since then works actively to achieve its scientific objectives. The GSEH has already 210 members and a network that expands all over Greece. Its members, which come from all Greek universities, are mainly academicians as well as researchers and professors with publications in the field of History of Education. The GSEH is a member of the International Standing Conference for the History of Education (ISCHE-founded in 1978). Among the aims of GSEH is the realization of conferences / seminars on the field of History of Education, among which is the established Annual Lecture “Alexis Dimaras”.
The lecture will be delivered in English with simultaneous translation into Greek.
