Submission deadline

15th July – 17th October 2026


The 30th Congress of the German Educational Research Association invites participation not only in classical formats such as symposia or working groups, but also in the format of the poster session. The poster session provides space for the presentation and discussion of ongoing or completed research projects—and is deliberately conceived not merely as an exhibition, but as an interactive meeting ground for exchange and networking.

Whether directly related to the congress theme “Fractures” or independent of it: submitted posters should stimulate conversation and be complemented by an additional audio presentation. Therefore, for the congress we ask you not only to prepare a poster, but—after acceptance of your contribution—also to record an audio file (max. 3 minutes). In this way, an audioguide will be created that guides participants through the poster exhibition on site and invites further engagement with the poster afterwards.

Early career researchers are especially encouraged to participate. For them, a free online workshop on poster design will be offered at the end of the year.

All further information on the format, submission, and procedure can be found in our Call for Posters (see above).
