Centre for Research in Learning & Change

 

The focus of our research is the investigation of the ways in which learning influences and is influenced by changes in educational institutions, workplaces, organisations and communities.

 

Our research aims to produce knowledge and practices to enhance learning, to promote more productive organisations and build more effective communities. At the heart of this research endeavour is to understand how learning responds to change, how learning is changing, and how change is embedded in, and constructed by, cultural and communication practices.

LearnScope is a project of the Australian Flexible Learning Framework (Framework). Since its inception in 1998, LearnScope has been part of a national strategy to increase the capacity of vocational and technical  education (VET) professionals to use flexible learning approaches and new technologies in the delivery of training.

LearnScope focuses on professional development to enhance the skills and understanding that underpin e-Learning and e-business.   It provides funding for work-based professional development projects and encourages both individuals and teams to model sustainable  practices in their own learning through a range of strategies including engagement with recent thinking about professional  development in the 'knowledge era'.

Since 1979, we have been campaigning against gobbledygook, jargon and misleading public information. We have helped many government departments and other official organisations with their documents, reports and publications. We believe that everyone should have access to clear and concise information in plain English.

We offer Conflict Resolution skills to build stronger organisations and more rewarding relationships. Communicating creatively can start from where you stand. It may be within family, community, government or the international arena. Conflict Resolution skills are the tools to move the rocks from the path.
