Founded in 2011, The Learner Research Network is brought together around a common concern for learning in all its sites, formal and informal, and at all levels, from early childhood to schools, colleges and universities, and adult, community and workplace education. We seek to build an epistemic community where we can make linkages across disciplinary, geographic, and cultural boundaries. As a Research Network, we are defined by our scope and concerns and motivated to build strategies for action framed by our shared themes and tensions.
The Thirtieth International Conference on Learning calls for research addressing the following annual themes and special focus:
