Abstracts are now being accepted for papers to be presented at the Conference on K-Education Revisited: Achievements and Challenges of Korean Education, taking place on August 15th, 2023 at The Pennsylvania State University.

The papers to be presented at the conference will offer important insights into not only the secret of success of K-education but also the challenges that it faces. The conference organizer plans to publish an edited volume or a special journal issue with papers presented in the conference. Conference presenters are expected to be committed to the plan for publication with their submitted papers for the conference. The tentative time line is:

  • Extended abstract (about 1,000 words) due: March 1, 2023
  • Notification of accepted abstracts: by March 15, 2023
  • Full manuscript (for accepted abstracts only) due: July 30, 2023
  • Conference: August 15, 2023
  • Revised manuscript (for invited papers only) due: November 30, 2023

Please email your extended abstract and CV to Soo-yong Byun (szb14@psu.edu) by March 1, 2023. The submitted abstract should be based on original research: It has not been published before and is not under consideration for publication anywhere else.

For the invited participants to the conference, some of the travel expenses, including airfare (i.e. up to $500 for domestic travel within US and up to $1,000 for international travel), lodging (up to two nights), and meals will be covered. Please see the flyer for further details.
