NEW LEARNING. theLearner publishes cutting edge ideas on teaching and learning—ideas which point to the emerging shape of a new world of learning. These are some of the things of interest and concern for theLearner:
- the blurred institutional boundaries between the family, work and formal education
- early childhood learning, once the domain of the family, and now a site of formal learning
- literacy, literacies, multiliteracies
- learning in and out of school: what children learn at home, from their peers, from the media
- new educational workplaces: self-governing schools, customised curricula, knowledge and teaching markets
- just-in-time and just-enough learning—learning what you need to know when and where you need to know it
- lifelong and lifewide learning
- work integrated learning
- new learning technologies
- global and multicultural education
- new pedagogies that demand as well as grant greater value to the volition and subjectivity of the learner
