I gave this talk at the Designs for Learning 2012 conference in Copenhagen in April 2012. The Talk used data drawn from The Class project and explored images of learning from home visits. My argument is that there is intense global interest in learning outside of the school and in this new educational order, the ‘home’ has become a vital ‘new’ terrain for all sorts of learning – formal, informal and semi-formal. Based on on-going research exploring the connected learning lives of a class of young people in London, the presentation  questioned what it means to talk about the home as a site for learning. It  described the ‘educational bricolage’ that goes on in domestic environments as parents and children negotiate the  pressures of commercial interests in opening up these spaces amidst an intensification of the pedagogicization of every-day life.

The talk will be online soon. The Powerpoint is available here.
