Learning Lab Denmark consists of a secretariat and seven research consortia: project clusters that conduct research and development activities under a thematic headline. Our work takes two primary paths: Collaborating with partners in the educational sector, we develop tools for learning and teaching in and for pedagogical institutions. Collaborating with representatives from the business sector, we develop tools that can facilitate organisational and individual learning processes in various types of both public and private organisations. Our visionIn terms of research, organisation and communication, Learning Lab Denmark aims to be at the forefront in both national and international contexts. In order to do so, two principles are particularly important to us: our Learning Lab Denmark style of research and our ambition to put communication at the centre of everything we do. Combining theory and practice As for research we aim to closely integrate theory and practice. With a focus on ‘action research’ in method, Learning Lab Denmark will constantly seek to build bridges across different sectors. Our aim is to work intensively with both the business community and other groups of society. We see the different participating parties more as equal partners in a development process than as mere research objects.
