The theme for IWALS 2018 is “Perspectives on the Learner: Cognition, Brain, and Education”. This theme embraces cross-discipline and cross-method perspectives on learning: its neural bases, its cognitive, social and motivational components, and how learning occurs in formal and informal educational settings. The workshop venue is the University of Pittsburgh’s Learning Research and Development Center (LRDC), a center for research in learning and education sciences for over 50 years. The University venue and the limited registration are designed to encourage interactions among participants.
