OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Understanding children's learning in the real world
This is a hybrid event.
The scientific method encourages us to isolate and test possible causes for behaviours one at a time. This leads to the creation of very rigorous but perhaps deceptively simple explanations of how learning is embedded in a complex real-world setting. In this talk, I will describe a series of work in which we have tried to move away from the well-controlled lab setting to more complex multi-sensory, multi-dimensional, and multi individual paradigms to address how children leverage different sources of information in parallel to achieve their learning goals. If time permits, I will also discuss lessons learnt from taking interventions developed in rigorous lab conditions into the real-word classrooms.
