In this provocative session three internationally renowned panelists will challenge the audience to think afresh about learning and teaching in informal settings.

You may be familiar with the sector’s most popular texts, but are you really applying them in your practice? Indeed, should you be?

Perhaps your institution was established along particular lines, but is it now timely to consider a newer theoretical paradigm? One that builds on more recent understandings of how learners learn?

In what ways does your institution currently engage with contemporary research? Could it, should it, be doing it better?

These questions and others will be posed and answered by scholars Marianne Achiam, Kevin Crowley and Justin Dillon. Join us for what promises to be a very stimulating discussion!
