Program

Two days. Mornings are shared — everyone in the same room. Afternoons open into parallel sessions where you choose your own path. Each day closes with something that makes the learning stick.

Plenary Talk
Control, Value, and Emotion: What AI Is Doing to the Learner's Experience
AI is quietly reshaping how learners experience control, value, and emotion in their work. Reinhard Pekrun puts control-value theory to work as a measurable lens on AI-mediated learning, with a sharp focus on the methods — how to capture achievement emotions and design studies that reveal whether AI supports or undermines them.
With Reinhard Pekrun

Workshop Sessions

3:30 – 4:00
Afternoon Break
4:00 – 6:00
Showcase
Share Your Work, Meet Your Collaborators
Bring a slide, a prototype, a finding, or just an idea you're wrestling with. This is your moment to share what you're working on with a generous, curious audience — followed by drinks and open networking.
From 6:30
Social
Dinner & Evening Social
Day One doesn't end when the Showcase does. We'll carry on into the evening over dinner — no agenda, no slides, just the unhurried conversation that the rest of the program is too busy for.
We'll hold a group reservation so there's a table waiting for us. Dinner and drinks are at your own expense — come along for the whole evening or just for a while.
Let us know you're coming by recording your interest when you register on Humanitix. Already registered and changed your mind — in either direction? Email C3L@adelaide.edu.au and we'll adjust the booking.

Plenary
Making Sense of Day One — and Navigating the Funding Landscape
We open Day Two with structured reflection on what surfaced yesterday, then shift to one of the most practical questions in academic life: how do you fund the work that matters? A session on the ARC landscape — what reviewers actually look for, how to position your work, and where early-career researchers tend to lose points.
With Sam Sellar
10:30 – 11:00
Morning Break
11:00 – 12:30
Open Gallery
Revisit, Explore, and Go Deeper
Yesterday's sessions don't disappear — they come back as a gallery. Each presenter sets up a brief station where you can get a rapid overview of what was covered, ask the questions you didn't get to ask, and make the connections you missed. Move freely, stay as long as you like at each stop.
12:30 – 2:00
Lunch
2:00 – 3:30
Research Clinic
Design Your Next Move
Bring a half-formed idea — a grant concept, a research design, a school partnership you're trying to shape, or a tool you want to build. Small groups rotate through facilitators who offer structured feedback and help you leave with something concrete: a clearer question, a sharper pitch, or a first draft of a plan.
3:30 – 4:00
Afternoon Break
4:00 – 5:00
Closing
What We're Building Together
We close not with a summary but with a commitment. What collaborations are forming? What follow-up do we need? Participants share intentions, facilitators map connection points, and we sketch what comes next for this community.
