Welcome to the Learning Sciences Research Institute.
We conduct research into the cognitive, social and cultural aspects of learning, to enhance education through the design of innovative technologies and environments for learners.

The LSRI brings together staff expertise from the founding Schools of Computer Science, Education and Psychology, as well as links to other disciplines.

The University has funded a major expansion of the Institute with new staff, research labs and facilities, under the Academic Director, Professor Mike Sharples.
