2015 at Imperial College
London in London, UK. We
welcome submissions from
a variety of disciplines and
perspectives and encourage
faculty and students to jointly
submit proposals, discussing
The Arts in Society through

• Social, Political and Community
Agendas in the Arts
2015 Special Focus
The Work of Art in the Age of
Networked Society
Digital technologies are
engendering new platforms
to produce, distribute, and
display art. The work of art, as
a category of labor, in the age
of networked society is often
argued though a grammar of
participation, collaboration,
and peers. Online galleries
and publishers are also seen to
allow for greater access to the
products of the work of art.
Moreover, there is a perceived
newfound autonomy of the
artist as distributor of content
and message. In addition to its usual broad range of themes
on the relation of the arts to
society, the 2015 conference
will explore the ways in which
digital technologies have
altered the way that the work
of art, as a category of labor,
and art objects themselves,
are perceived, conceptualized,
and theorized.

22nd Internatio nal Conference on Learning
Call For Papers
The Learning Conference will
be held from 9-11 July 2015 at
the Universidad San Pablo
CEU in Madrid, Spain.
2015 Special Focus
In addition to the annual
themes, the conference will
address the special focus –
What Counts as Learning? Big
Data, Little Data, Evidence,
and Assessment– through
keynote speakers, garden sessions,
workshops, and parallel
sessions.
The “digital revolution” is
changing the ways in which
students do their work, and
also the ways in which teachers
source curriculum content
and plan learning activities.
They also transform the
sources of data that provide
evidence of student learning. The fields of educational data
mining and learning analytics
offer perspectives on an
important and newly emerging
area of innovation in the
learning sciences. As students
undertake more of their learning
in computer-mediated
environments, an evolving
cluster of technologies and associated
pedagogical processes
offer great promise to provide
solutions to some longstanding
practical challenges in the
field of education. The larger
potential of continuous formative
and progress assessment
based on many small datapoints
is to make redundant
summative assessment in its
traditional forms, or at least to
supplement traditional summative
assessments in a way
that compensates for their
intrinsic limitations.
Conference Themes
• Pedagogy and Curriculum
• Assessment and Evaluation
• Educational Organization
and Leadership
• Early Childhood Learning
• Learning in Higher Education
• Adult, Community, and Professional Learning
• Learner Diversity and Identities
• Technologies in Learning
• Literacies Learning
