Learning Technologies Program 

The Learning Technologies Program focuses on ways to use technology to improve how people teach and learn. Well-paid, rewarding jobs in the U.S. depend on a workforce prepared to operate in a fast-paced, technologically sophisticated global economy. Doing this in an affordable way for a highly diverse population demands new approaches. But progress in improving education and training has been slow. Advanced technologies have the potential to make learning more productive for students of all ages and all backgrounds and are an essential part of meeting the nation's education and training challenges.
