*A Brief History of Consciousness and Learning*

University of British Columbia, Vancouver

July 9-13, 2012



►    This summer, take a trip to *Vancouver BC* to attend a unique summer
institute offered by both The University of British
Columbia<http://educ.ubc.ca>and Simon
Fraser University <http://sfu.ca>



*The Program*

Come participate in a 5-day UBC/SFU summer institute, delivered by leading
scholars exploring how technology, as a particular regard for tools and
techniques, reflects a state of consciousness that bears on our ideas of
learning.  These questions involve educational issues of:

   - Culture and History,
   - Language and Knowledge,
   - Identity and Difference.



This program provides a rich platform for ongoing research to be shared and
built upon by engaging with *students*, *faculty*, and *community members*.
Each day has its own theme and instructor(s), and is accompanied by an
afternoon lecture.  Visit the website <http://eplt.educ.ubc.ca/rqt2012> for
