UNIVERSITY OF AGDER, September 19-21 2018

World Learning Summit 2018

Imagine Life-Long Learning

From Artificial Intelligence and digitalization of work, to Big Data and Human Interaction in school: Technology is changing education and the way we think about it. Across the range of theories and practice, some predict the doom of education. Others think digital technologies are not a big change factor. If these questions interest you, we think you should come to our 8th annual World Learning Summit. You´ll met international thought leaders, enjoy the benefits of a not too large conference in a friendly place. Our goal is simple: To create a community of interacting life-long learners and educators interested in designs, critiques, cultures and potentials behind new media and learning technologies.

Digital learning designs and transfomations

Scholarly papers and innovation designs of a more practical nature fuse in our explorations of education technologies in use. Media theories, pedagogy and a range of disciplinary angles shed light on what works.

Digitalization of work and lifelong learning

Digital disruption is all about changing boundaries and the restructuring of social interactions. A key to future learning will be our ability to connect education, learning and digital transformations of work in new ways.

Networked globalized online distance learning

The coming of globally networked society is a change factor in education on many levels; we travel more, education formats and styles are being globalized. The importance of "being there" is - in earnest - not that clear.
