Unbound / Obermann Center Reading Group

Unbound: Learning Without Limits was selected as an Obermann Center Working Group for the 2024-2025 academic year. The purpose of our Working Group is to foster discussion to better understand and apply research on learning in informal environments to our individual work through a monthly reading group. Our plans for the spring semester include bringing a speaker to campus to share with use their work on conducted research in informal learning spaces. 

* Graduate Students. At times, graduate students work on projects as part of their assistantship. However, in most cases, they work as volunteers.
