Learning, Teaching and Training: Realising Potential Throughout Life

Following on from the previous SIG 16 Metacognition and Self-regulated Learning conferences, the twelfth meeting is being held in Clermont-Ferrand, hosted by the University of Clermont Auvergne, on the theme of fostering metacognition and self-regulated learning at all ages and in different contexts. In the global climate of multiple uncertainties and crises of different origins, the SIG 16 conference will continue to encourage research aimed at understanding the individual and social conditions that favour metacognition and self-regulated learning. Developing these processes is both an objective in itself and a means to train individuals to become informed and better armed to face current societal risks: exclusion, attacks on democracy, environmental issues, and misinformation.
