EARLI SIG14 Conference 2024 : Abstract book

Abstract

Faculty of Education and Psychology in the University of Jyväskylä is organizing the EARLI SIG14 conference in Jyväskylä. The biennial EARLI SIG14 is an international three-day event. The conference is a forum that brings together researchers from different backgrounds who focus on studying work and education as contexts for professional learning and development. SIG14 focuses on the following research topics and themes: • Work and education as contexts for professional learning and development; • theories and methodologies for the study of professional learning and development; • constraints and affordances of professional learning and work identities; • vocational education and training in schooling and working life contexts; • adult learning processes within the context of work. This year's conference theme is 'Learning On-the-Go: Understanding the Dynamics of Continuous Professional Development in a Tech-Driven World.' In an increasingly digitalized world, professional learning and development are vital, and understanding their dynamics is more important than ever.
