About
The Centre for Research in Digital Education is based in the Edinburgh Futures Institute and the Moray House School of Education and Sport at The University of Edinburgh. We research, teach and conduct knowledge exchange in areas relating to digital education including policy, practice, artificial intelligence and education futures.
Engagement
We work with many partner universities as well as policymakers, the cultural heritage sector, schools and other public and private sector organisations. Our partners value us for our critical approach to learning, teaching and technology in formal and informal education, and for the ways in which we combine our research with world-leading practice in digital education.
