Science of Learning Centers (SLC)
The Science of Learning aims to understand what
learning is and how it is affected at all levels, ranging from the digital
to the societal. The science of learning emerges from the intersections of
diverse disciplines across the biological, cognitive, computational, mathematical,
physical, and social sciences, engineering, and education. Areas include psychological,
social and pedagogical aspects of learning, the biological basis of learning,
machine learning, learning technologies, and mathematical analyses and modeling
of all of these. This growing body of knowledge is extending our understanding
of learning and connecting learning research to the scientific, technological,
educational, and workforce challenges of our time. [more...]
