Centre for the Science of Learning & Technology

university of bergen

SLATE is a leading centre in the development of knowledge about how educational data can be used to support knowledge, learning, and teaching processes. Drawing on interdisciplinary collaboration we investigate the technological, pedagogical, interpretive, cultural, ethical, and legal aspects of learning analytics (LA) and artificial intelligence in education (AIEd) and promote the responsible use of technology in education.  

SLATE draws together researchers from multiple disciplines including information science, cognitive science, and pedagogy, and thereby conducts integrated research that will advance the frontiers of sciences of learning, as well as inform education practice and policy.
