Are you a graduate student in education or learning sciences looking for a supportive, low-stakes environment to stress-test your research? 🎓✨

We are thrilled to announce that the Learning Sciences Graduate Student Conference (LSGSC) 2026 is officially back! This year, our conference theme is “Emerging and Unfinished Thoughts.” Whether you are deep into your dissertation or just beginning to map out the edges of a new research question, this community is built with you in mind. We welcome the theoretical frameworks you are still testing, datasets that raised more questions than answers, or early-stage interdisciplinary hunches.

💡 Why participate in LSGSC 2026?

100% Student-Led & Student-Centered: To ensure a truly low-pressure environment, this conference is gathered by and for graduate students. No faculty oversight or intimidating panel interrogations—just a safe space to share "half-baked" ideas and build community with your peers.

Free Submission: There are zero submission fees to participate.

Multiple Ways to Engage: We are currently open to submissions, peer-review volunteers, and general attendance!
