for developing a transdisciplinary research team to improve student learning with OER

OpenStax is establishing the Learning in Education Research Network at Rice University, a first-of-its-kind scientific and educational endeavor to study and harness the complex factors that propel human learning. With this new partnership, the network expects to be able to use OER to radically advance the learning sciences and to foster the development and validation of truly personalized educational approaches that will help all learners reach their full intellectual potential. This approach will deepen connections between research and practice, specifically studies that can support and demonstrate the effective use of OER.
