Computer and Learning Research Group (CALRG) is one of the UK‘s leading research groups in the use of technologies in education. CALRG’s annual conference provides a forum for members, as well as other researchers and practitioners at the Open University and other institutions, to present their work. We particularly encourage research students to contribute submissions and attend to discuss their project.
Submission Guidelines
The following paper categories are welcome:
- Full papers
- Posters
- Doctorial Consortiums
- Innovative formats
As the conference will be held in a virtual environment, we encourage any submissions that would like to trial an innovative online-friendly format. We especially welcome presentations that explore the links between different research projects.

For each submission, an abstract with 150 to 300 words is required with keyword suggestions.
