Learning Engineering Hub
The community resource for current and future learning engineers
Welcome to the Learning Engineering Hub, the community resource dedicated to the advancement of the field of learning engineering. This platform serves as a dynamic hub for current and future learning engineers to connect, collaborate, and contribute to the evolving landscape of educational technology and methodology.
What is Learning Engineering?
Learning engineering drives improvements in real-world education outcomes by leveraging advances in computer science to accelerate the pace, relevance, and application of learning science.
The Problem
Today, research in learning science (the scientific, humanistic, and critical theoretical understanding of learning) suffers from slow, small-scale, and data-poor processes. As a result, there exists a gap between the newest findings on teaching and learning and approaches that are used with actual students.
The Learning Engineering Solution
Learning engineers increase the speed and effectiveness of learning science research through automated data collection, analysis, learning analytics and more. This allows for rapid experimentation and continuous improvement of the learning platforms, environments, and methodologies that they deliver to learners.
The Learning Engineering Hub is made possible thanks to the contributions and collaborative efforts of the learning engineering community. The Hub has relied heavily on information pulled together by the Learning Engineering Commons, founded by Dan Jarratt, who remains an advisor. Other early advisors, reviewers, and contributors include Jenessa Peterson, Kumar Garg, Meg Benner, and Bror Saxberg. The Hub is currently managed by Sam Eastes, who can be contacted for any questions or suggestions for additional content.
