		*******  CONFERENCE UPDATE  ********...

		Centre for the Social Study of Childhood,

    "Sites of Learning" 14th - 16th September 1999, University of Hull

		An interdisciplinary conference  on childhood

This conference addresses the theme of children' s learning in and across a
diverse range of social settings -  the home,  school and playground; the
street; the media and the  Internet. Through exploring these different
sites of childhood  our aim is bring together a range of disciplinary
perspectives on the  different ways in which children learn ,  the
different places in which  this  learning takes place and the different
experiences of  learning  which children have -  with their peers, their
parents and the professionals they encounter.

Conference themes include:


* The transfer and exchange of knowledge and ideas  between children
themselves,		   					   in the
street, at home, in the playground ....


* Ways and modes of children's learning - generational, spatial, visual,
oral...


* Children's resources for learning - their social, economic, political and
material capital or lack of it...


* Children's appropriate and  inappropriate knowledges ...


The Annual Lecture of the Centre will be given during the conference by Dr,
		Martin Woodhead,  Centre for Human Learning and Development,
			  Open University

 Plenary Speakers:
	 Prof. Andrew Pollard, University of  Bristol


	Sos Bayer & Jan Kampman,  Roskilde University,  Denmark
