NLC2016: Looking back – moving forward
A research-based conference on networked learning in higher education, lifelong learning & professional development
Since 1998 the biennial Networked Learning Conference has been an
opportunity to participate in a forum for the critical examination and
analysis of research in networked learning – particularly in Higher
Education and lifelong learning. Networked learning has become a
broader area of inquiry over the years bringing together research in
education and organisations spanning formal and informal learning
settings. It is a conference that has been particularly concerned with
critical perspectives, theory, pedagogical values, analysis, practice
based research and designs for learning. The focus of the conference
has been research and practice that addresses relational and
interactional aspects of learning and development with an emphasis on
dialogical learning, collaborative and cooperative learning and
learning in social networks.
NLC2016 will be held at on the 9th, 10th, 11th May, 2016, at Lancaster House Hotel and the local organisers will all be members of the Centre for Technology Enhanced Learning in the Department of Educational Research at Lancaster University.
