The Teaching, Learning, and Technology degree programs employ a scientist/practitioner model of learning. That is, we believe that research is not separate from application or practice. Therefore, our doctoral students collaborate closely with faculty to generate new theories and classification systems, innovative curricula that make the most of promising technologies, authentic approaches to assessing learning, and a wide range of creative methods of teaching and learning in a global world highly interconnected by technology. In keeping with the scientist/practitioner model, our doctoral students learn through innovative approaches, including modular strategies for curriculum delivery, online synchronous and asynchronous environments, and a wide range of other technology-enhanced designs for learning.

Our doctoral research studies focus on best practices in learning sciences and the design, development, and integration of innovative e-learning technologies. We admit doctoral students at both the post-bachelor’s level and the post-master’s level. Applicants may come from a wide range of prior academic backgrounds:

Learning Sciences and Technology Ph.D. Program: An inter-collegiate degree with a concentration in Teaching and Learning in School Settings (48 credits post-master’s/72 credits post-bachelor’s)
