This paper presents the results of the concept analysis of co-creation of learning and discusses how this concept is applied in the educational context. The concept co-creation of learning is a border concept, which is increasingly used in diverse areas, however, there is a lack of a current theory regarding the subject in the existing educational literature. The objective of the concept analysis was to make a dissection of the concept of co-creation of learning into simpler elements to promote clarity while providing mutual understanding within education by giving the particular concept a specific meaning. The concept analysis reflects the situation in contemporary education when learning becomes a co-creative practice and is based on partnership and collaboration, changing roles of teachers and students; it takes place at different stages of curriculum implementation. The article discussed the defined key attributes of the concept co-creation of learning, which are linked to collaborative process, collaborative output, transformative interaction and teacher position, learner's agency, new space for learning, self-authorship, learning community and partnership in learning, metacognitive practices and value co-creation. The research revealed that co-creation of learning can be successfully enhanced and supported by relevant and creative pedagogical strategies. They include generative dialogue, negotiation, collaborative work, participatory design model and others. Non-hierarchical relationships, flexible curriculum and scaffolding practices, formative assessment were identified as the antecedents for co-creation of learning to emerge while such factors as added value, increased learning ownership, better engagement in the learning process and learners' empowerment were identified as the consequences of co-creation of learning.
