Education for a Global Networked Society

EARLI CONFERENCE 2011: 14th Biennial EARLI Conference for Research on Learning and Instruction

The University of Exeter is proud to host the EARLI Conference and they are looking forward to welcoming you all here in Exeter. The conference brings together researchers from across the world and through both formal and informal conversations, new links and new networks are established.

Indeed, the theme of the conference is Education for a Global Networked Society. The theme reflects their interest in how the globalisation of markets, including education, and how the technology of mass communication are changing educational practices and creating both new possibilities and new challenges. They hope the theme will stimulate the sharing of research around networked and collaborative learning, both virtual and face-to-face, and research investigating and theorising education in a global world. They are, of course, very glad to welcome a wide range of research on learning and instruction.
