Through our learning research programme we evaluate the impact of technology on learning and teaching; publish the learning outcomes of new educational prototypes; support our partners by involving children, teachers and parents in the R&D process; maintain a pool of shareable knowledge and resources; present our findings at conferences across Europe.
