SIG 07 Technology-Enhanced Learning And Instruction

The SIG 7 — Technology-Enhanced Learning and Instruction — addresses a broad range of topics related to technology-supported and technology-driven learning and teaching. Key themes include computer-based learning, e-learning, computer-supported collaborative learning, the design and evaluation of multimedia and hypermedia learning environments, ubiquitous and mobile computing, and emerging technologies such as augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and artificial intelligence (AI) in education.

The SIG explores these themes across various learning contexts — from schools and universities to workplace learning and informal educational settings. SIG 7Its primary aim is to bring together researchers, practitioners, and other interested audiences from around the world to deepen our understanding of both foundational and applied mechanisms of learning and instruction with technology.
