Welcome to LESTER!

LESTER (Learning Science and Technology Repository), an online community and database focused on innovations in learning science and technology (LST), profiles innovative research projects and researchers. Registered users can add, update, or modify records about their projects and organization, thereby keeping the information accurate and up-to-date. Registration is not required to search or browse the database.

LESTER is no longer being maintained, but is kept online as a legacy site.

Developed by Rice University's Digital Media Center with the support of Microsoft Research, LESTER supports the development and application of innovative learning methods and technologies. Users can search or browse the database of over 800 records, participate in online discussions, contribute new information, or read more about LESTER.
