of Learning"

About the conference
The International Conference of the Learning Sciences is a bi-annual
conference sponsored by the International Society of the Learning
Sciences (ISLS). The conference brings together researchers in the
sciences of learning, instruction, and design in order to address
questions of how we can better understand and improve learning. Our
theme for 2012 is the Future of Learning, and the conference will
hosts workshops, panels, symposia, paper and poster sessions, and
keynotes by leaders in the field, reflecting on what we have learned
so far and considering directions for the future;. It's an opportunity
to share and gain insight into critical debate and new research
findings across the various disciplines of the learning sciences.
Where and when
