To foster a wide range of rich and diverse exchanges, the 14th ARDiST Scientific Conference will include several types of sessions:

• Communication sessions: these will present ongoing or recently completed research. Each presentation will be allocated 30 minutes, with 15 to 20 minutes for the presentation itself followed by 10 to 15 minutes of discussion.

• Symposia: each will bring together three presentations from researchers affiliated with at least two different research units working on similar issues, along with a designated discussant. Each symposium will last 2 hours, with time distribution managed by the symposium organizer, ensuring at least 20 minutes are reserved for audience interaction. Proposals for longer symposia are also welcome.

• Invited lectures: these will offer contributions to science and technology education, connected to current research developments.

• A round table: focused on interdisciplinarity in science and technology education research, particularly the intersections between this field and other educational or disciplinary domains.

Following the conference, participants will have the opportunity to submit a full-length paper for inclusion in the volume After the 14th Conference, to be published by the association.
