IALT Research Teams
Creative Technology Research Lab (CTRL)
Director: Maya Israel, Ph.D.
CTRL is an interdisciplinary research lab with collaborators at the University of Illinois-Urbana Champaign. The lab’s primary aim is to investigate how to meaningfully engage all learners in technology-mediated learning, with a focus on computer science and computational thinking.
Dynamic Educational Technology Advancements and Innovations for Learning (DETAIL) Lab
Director: Albert Ritzhaupt, Ph.D.
The DETAIL Lab is comprised of forward-thinking doctoral students and candidates at the University of Florida seeking to advance the field of educational technology by pushing the boundaries on a wide range of topics of relevance to both the students and the field.
Equitable Learning Technology Lab (ELTL)
Director: Nigel Newbutt, Ph.D.
ELTL is at the forefront of inclusive research and design practices, using collaborative, co-designed research with advanced technologies to develop solutions to critical educational and real-world problems facing neurodiverse communities.
Fair Measurement Research Lab
Director: A. Corinne Huggins-Manley, Ph.D.
The Fair Measurement Research Lab houses a variety of research projects and studies related to improving fairness in educational assessment, including but not limited to technology-enhanced classroom assessment. By evaluating and aligning measurement research and practices to the Standards for Educational and Psychological Testing, research in the lab promotes the highest of standards for fair assessment practices that promote equitable learning opportunities for all.
Creative Learning through AI and Stealth Assessment in STEM (CLASS) Lab
Director: Seyedahmad (Ahmad) Rahimi, Ph.D.
The Investigating Digital Ecologies to Advance Transformative Education (IDEATE) Lab
Director: Rob Moore, Ph.D.
The IDEATE Lab utilizes principles of design thinking grounded in reflective inquiry to uncover adaptive and innovative solutions to complex problems within all levels of education. We employ advanced learning analytics techniques to explore the dynamics of these digital spaces and identify, evaluate, and design effective instructional approaches to support student success.
Neuroscience Applications for Learning Laboratory (NeurAL Lab)
Director: Pavlo (Pasha) Antonenko, Ph.D.
Neuroscience Applications for Learning (NeurAL) Laboratory is an interdisciplinary team of faculty and students who use cognitive, affective and social neuroscience frameworks to explore how people learn with advanced learning technologies. Studies are designed using authentic learning contexts and improve the design and practice of 21st century learning and teaching.
