Websites: Stanford research groups
- Stanford IDEAL Research Lab"IDEAL Research Lab Mission: To identify equity challenges in STEM pathways and co-construct equitable active learning environments with undergraduate instructors and students to address these challenges using learning and cognition theories."
- Stanford Engineering Designing Education Lab"The Designing Education Lab (DEL), led by Professor Sheri Sheppard
, investigates a broad range of engineering education topics, from the persistence of students and alumni in engineering fields to the impact of exposure to entrepreneurship on engineering students' career interests. DEL researchers are engaged in national and international collaborations with colleagues within and outside of engineering." - AAA Lab"AAALab stands for Awesomely Adaptive and Advanced Learning and Behavior. We create pedagogy, technology, and assessments that prepare students to continue learning and adapting. Our niche is the integration of cognitive science methods with years of classroom and programming experience to create novel and carefully tested technologies and theories of learning. A theme throughout our research is how people's facility for spatial cognition can inform and influence processes of learning, instruction, assessment, and problem-solving."
