The concept ‘learning lives’ encapsulates two important research trends to do with understanding how knowledge production comes about (‘learning’) and to do with understanding the subjects and contexts through which this production takes shape (‘lives’). As is well known, the last two decades have seen an increasing focus on the learners’ end of knowledge production and on the processes through which knowledge is acquired, as witnessed, for example, by the upsurge in handbook publications (e.g. Moon, 2004; Sawyer, 2006; Bonk & Graham, 2006; Mayer & Alexander, 2010; Sefton-Green, Thomson, Jones & Bresler, 2011). Learning is a complex set of ongoing practices through which people change their understanding of themselves and the world in ways that facilitate a change of action. Equally, the focus on learning has been accompanied by a growing acknowledgement that learning can and does unfold in complex and interlocking sets of physical sites and settings – home, school, work, libraries, museums, leisure time or ‘doing nothing’– and under di?erent arrangements of organisation – formal, semi-formal, informal (Drotner, Jensen & Schrøder, 2008). Learning is intrinsic to people’s lives, when viewed from both an everyday perspective and a lifecourse perspective. Taken together, then, the elements in the term ‘learning lives’ underscore a bottom-up perspective on the acquisition of knowledge.
