The next public lecture of Studia Generalia entitled "Reforming our schools: Comparative study of Educational reforms in Europe" will be delivered by professor Ivor F. Goodson. The lecture will take place in the auditorium M-213 (TU Mare building, Uus-Sadama 5) on Thursday,30 October at 16:00.

Prof. Ivor F. Goodson will talk about a four-year study of educational reforms in seven European countries that has been recently completed. The study looks at Northern and Southern Europe and shows how globalising reform initiatives are re-interpreted at the national and local level. This is important in the light of the new, Estonian study, which will analyse educational reforms during the late communist and post-communist period as a particular way to respond globalising educational policies.

Studia Generalia is a series of public lectures delivered by the teachers, researchers and visiting lecturers of TU. Anyone who enters the University building can listen to what prominent thinkers have to say on current topics that affect society, and also participate in the discussion.
