Abstract

The symposium has two main goals: First, it would allow the contributors to the recent JLS special issue on complex systems in education to provide an overview of the issues raised in their respective papers as well as to discuss updated research of relevance. Second, it is hoped that this symposium will provide a forum for discussing the potential implications of complex systems perspectives for research in the learning sciences, and more generally for educational research, curriculum development, and educational policy and reform initiatives.
