Education for the World... Education in the World

Practical skills for helping, living, working and connecting in a small world
Our theme acknowledges the importance of providing opportunities for learners in academic and workplace settings to gain knowledge and practical skills for helping, living and connecting in a small world.

Across business, industry and academic sectors, there is growing demand and need for education and training that uses innovative pedagogies and technologies to develop not only content knowledge, but also to enhance our understanding of each other - our languages, cultures and values locally and globally.
Join us for another engaging conference as MADLaT 2018 hosts an interdisciplinary forum for educators, trainers and technology specialists involved in technology-enabled teaching, training and learning.

The key focus for this year’s conference is creating and improving access to, within and between learning environments.
 
There will also be sessions focused on envisioning the future of access and educational technology’s impact on creating and improving accessibility. Policy and research discussion of the current and future trends that impact leaders and professionals in academia and industry will also be highlighted.​
