14th EARLI biennial conference - Education for a Global Networked Society

Date : 30-08-2011 - 03-09-2011

Exeter

Organisation : European association for research on learning and instruction (EARLI)


Programme :
The EARLI conference is perhaps the most important educational research conference outside of the USA and we think this gives us a great responsibility to respond to the challenges that we are living through, particularly the challenges thrown up by a rapid transition towards a future world that will be much more global and much more networked. This is why the theme of the conference is, Education for a Global Networked Society. To serve that theme we will open the conference to the world through a parallel virtual conference open to all and through special invited symposia showcasing research from regions normally poorly represented in EARLI conferences. Our theme implies the sub-themes of:



- multicultural education
- education for ‘knowledge age’ skills and dispositions
- education and the internet
- education and sustainable global development

But we are open to all strands of high quality educational research and your proposal will not be penalized if it does not explicitly address the theme.

Deadline for submission of proposals: 29 October 2010
