Welcome to the
Knowledge Media Research Center!

Knowledge acquisition, its exchange, and communication within innovative technologies are the core research topics at the Knowledge Media Research Center in Tuebingen. Study matters are classic forms of teaching as well as in-class education in higher education and school domains, together with possibilities of learning in informal settings, as in museums, the internet and workspaces.
A multidisciplinary team of highly trained scientists from cognitive and educational sciences, human behavioral sciences and social sciences is completed by experts from media technology and computer science. By cooperating closely with public and private institutions and by transferring research results into real world applications, the institute makes a substantial contribution to enable innovative media-based teaching and learning scenarios.

On our website we provide further insights into our organizational structure and the research conducted at the institute.
