ADL Partnership Lab

The ASU ADL Partnership Lab’s primary focus is task-oriented exploratory learning environments.

This includes learning that takes place in simulated environments, context-aware performance support, and just-in-time learning to support on-the-job performance of individuals and teams. The lab is looking to a future that moves beyond the traditional training “course.” It is looking towards a new paradigm for learning that is lifelong and integrates with everything we do.
