We welcome all respected presenters to the International Conference on Progressive Education (ICOPE 2019) in Bandar Lampung, Indonesia. A major goal and feature of it are to bring academic scientists, education researchers, teachers, students together to exchange and share their experiences and research results about most aspects of science and social research, and discuss the practical challenges encountered and the solutions adopted.

We hope you will have a technically rewarding experience and use this occasion to meet old friends and make many new ones. Do not miss the opportunity to explore in Bandar Lampung. ICOPE 2019 promises to be both stimulating and informative with a wonderful array of keynote and invited speakers from several countries.

The program consists of invited sessions and discussions with eminent speakers covering a wide range of topics in science and social research. This rich program provides all attendees with opportunities to meet and interact with one another. We hope your experience with ICOPE 2019 is a fruitful and long-lasting one. With your support and participation, the conference will continue its success for a long time.

Finally, we have raised the bar by focusing on better quality articles for acceptance to be published in reputable journals. We do hope that participants would understand that publication is a long and tedious process that involves many rounds of reviews and corrections. For these reasons, we hope that participants could assist by putting in more effort to ensure that articles submitted are original, error-free and fulfill the quality standard imposed. So, help us to help you and the others as well, as a delay in submission by some individuals will affect the others as well.

We would like to thank the organization staff, the members of the program committees and reviewers. They have worked very hard in reviewing papers and making valuable suggestions for the authors to improve their work. We also would like to express our gratitude to the external reviewers, for providing extra help in the review process, and the authors for contributing their research results to the conference.

We wish all attendees of ICOPE 2019 an enjoyable scientific gathering in Bandar Lampung. We look forward to seeing all of you next year at the conference.

Happy Conferencing
