Advancing Understanding of Infrastructuring in the Learning Sciences

Sun, April 14, 3:05 to 4:35pm, Pennsylvania Convention Center, Floor: Level 100, Room 115B

Session Type: Structured Poster Session

Abstract

In this session, we attend to how power and equity are embedded in the infrastructures that support learning environments, as well as the processes by which these infrastructures are (re)designed and maintained (i.e., infrastructuring). Cutting across formal and informal contexts, this structured poster session brings together learning scholars focusing on infrastructure with the goal of more deeply understanding the roles these practices, structures, and processes play in either reifying or dismantling systems of oppression in education. Addressing methodological, epistemological, and axiological questions of infrastructure can result in both theoretical and methodological advancements for equitable learning and design taking place in complex learning ecosystems.
