About The Learning Lab team at The Derek Bok Center for Learning and Teaching
The Learning Lab team collaborates with Harvard faculty to explore, design and build materials, assignments, and activities for Harvard courses. These activities often involve unconventional modes of communicating, making, and creating – including data visualization, film-making, public speaking, 3D modeling, virtual reality, sculpture, dance and performance, and public service, among many others. Since students will often be engaging these media and tools for the very first time, the Learning Lab provides direct instruction to students through workshops and hackathons hosted in our Learning Lab Studio, a flexible space with dynamic technological capabilities and artmaking supplies.
