Network Activities 2024

LERA seniors met on 29 April 2024 for a meeting to discuss ongoing and future work. 12 members attended the meeting. Danutė Puchovičienė, Vajonė Strimaitienė, Gražina Navalinskienė, Birutė Aleksandravičienė.

Ritas Aleknaitė-Bieliauskienė, Chairperson of the Emeriti Network Committee, reported on the activities of LERA working groups, the possibility of organising educational forums, and the preparations for the LERA Annual Conference.

Dr. Vilija Grincevičienė prepared a presentation on “Dr. Magdalena Karčiauskienė – a prominent historian of the development of pedagogical thought in Lithuania”. Meaningful discussions took place.

The guidelines for the activities of the emeriti and the topics of their written works were approved. The opportunity was left for the realisation of individual plans: articles, monographs, educational hours. Possibilities for participation in the conference and preliminary themes were discussed.

It was noted that the themes seen by LERA young scientists often do not address contemporary issues. More interest in problem areas should be encouraged and the deep work of Lithuanian pedagogical thought should be kept in mind.

The tasks of the Emeriti group are understood, next meeting in September.
