The Next Gen Learning: Multimodality, AI & Multilingualism Conference foregrounds multimodality as a central lens for understanding and shaping the future of education in a world where acquiring knowledge is dynamic and deeply interconnected. As learning increasingly unfolds across digital, physical, linguistic and cultural spaces, meaning-making extends beyond language to include images, sound, gesture, movement, and material interaction, allowing knowledge to be created and experienced in richer, more interactive ways. At the same time, AI-driven technologies are transforming the ways that multimodal resources are produced, accessed and scaled, introducing new forms of responsiveness, creativity and personalization while intensifying questions of equity, access and the value of human engagement. Drawing on different understandings of multimodality, the conference critically examines how multimodal and multilingual practices can counter industrial-era models of schooling and redefine assessment, teaching and literacies in collaborative and AI-augmented environments.
