DESCRIPTION:Informal learning (IL) is increasingly recognised as vital for
  lifelong learning\, yet remains under-conceptualised beyond workplace and
  institutional settings. In this seminar\, Professor Johnny Sung presents 
 a novel analysis of IL using unique diary data collected in Singapore. Mov
 ing beyond traditional institutional lenses\, the talk introduces a more g
 eneral conceptualisation of IL embedded across all daily activities. Prof.
  Sung will also share data insights into the patterns and contexts of IL\,
  exploring what kinds of IL are observed\, how IL experience may differ ac
 ross individuals\, as well as when and where IL occurs throughout daily ac
 tivities.\n\nProfessor Johnny Sung was Chair of Skills and Performance at 
 the University of Leicester (2010–2011)\, having previously served as Se
 nior Research Fellow (2000–2010). In 2011\, at the invitation of the Sin
 gapore government\, Professor Sung established the Centre for Skills\, Per
 formance and Productivity (CSPP) at Singapore's Institute for Adult Learni
 ng (IAL). CSPP's research covered diverse topics\, including national skil
 ls development\, job quality\, lifelong learning\, the design of skills su
 pport instruments\, and policy evaluation.\n\nProfessor Sung retired to th
 e UK in 2022 but remains actively involved in research. He currently serve
 s as a thematic expert on skills policy\, supporting the European Commissi
