DIGITAL EDUCATION & LEARNING SCIENCES
Digital Education and Learning Sciences Laboratory
How do learners understand, participate and sustain their learning in digital environments?
Learning and technology
About the laboratory
Place learning processes at the centre of research, connecting learning sciences with digital teaching practice. Study how learners understand knowledge, organise tasks, receive feedback and sustain participation. Through course observation, teaching prototypes and learning experience research, examine support, accessibility and learner differences in online and blended environments to inform instructional design.
Core research question
How do learners understand, participate and sustain their learning in digital environments?
Main research directions
Online and blended learning experiences
Analyse connections between asynchronous learning, live exchanges, teacher–learner interaction and learning pace.
Feedback, participation and learning support
Study feedback timing, identification of learning difficulties, peer interaction and sustained participation.
Accessibility and inclusive learning
Consider equipment, digital skills, accessibility needs and the experiences of learners from different backgrounds.
Research and exchange
Exchange experience, relevant resources or research ideas relating to specific teaching and education contexts. Collaboration discussions specify participants, data sources, methodological choices and practical conditions, with attention to the needs of people from different backgrounds.
The Alliance provides one exchange gateway. Choose a laboratory of interest and send your ideas to the collaboration email address.
