Call for Papers: the ICALLD Symposium-over-time 2025

Making cases for the role of learning development/advising in changing educational landscapes
The next ICALLD Symposium-over-time will be held online 31st March-4th April 2025
ICALLD’s symposium around the clock aims to create opportunities to explore this theme with colleagues from across the world. We invite colleagues to submit proposals for sessions that help us do this. This means we are not looking for presenters who share ready-made answers! We welcome presenters who are willing and able to scaffold a discussion and orchestrate conversation around one of the two sub-themes and then share the outcomes of this discussion via the ICALLD blog.
Sub-theme 1: Providing evidence of the impacts of learning development/advising
- Provocation 1: What are the impacts of our work on students, lecturers, and/or institutions?
- Provocation 2: What types of evidence are we actually providing of those impacts to institutional leadership?
- Provocation 3: What types of evidence should we be providing to leadership instead/as well?
Sub-theme 2: Articulating the roles of learning developers/advisors in education
- Provocation 1: What are the key elements of the current learning in higher/tertiary/further education landscape that have implications for our work?
- Provocation 2: What changes are happening now and/or on the horizon that have implications for our work?
- Provocation 3: What is it about our work that makes us a necessary ongoing element of learning in higher/tertiary/further education?
Further details are available in the information sheet and template attached.
