The Centre for Research in IT in Education (CRITE) is a collaboration between the School of Education and the School of Computer Science & Statistics (SCSS). Its research agenda is to explore how technology can be used to enhance teaching & learning and it does so largely through the lenses of constructionism and social constructivism. The close synergy between the two academic disciplines involved is a distinguishing feature of the Centre and allows it to develop tools and pedagogical strategies which benefit from both technological and educational perspectives.
