The research line focuses on the design and evaluation of learning environments aimed at enhancing active and meaningful learning in different instructional contexts. Based on available knowledge about human learning, the characteristics of effective learning environments are characterised by being (1) learner-centred (building on learners' prior knowledge and skills, attitudes, beliefs and motivations: (2) focus on knowledge and understanding, emphasising the importance of prioritising deep understanding, seeking to facilitate the development of well-organised, accessible and flexible knowledge in different contexts and situations), (3) prioritise formative assessment and feedback, enabling learners to review and improve the quality of their learning, and teachers to provide them with the supports that enable them to make progress; and, (4) developing a sense of belonging to a learning-oriented community, emphasising interaction, cooperative learning, contrasting arguments and giving and receiving help from peers.

It also emphasises the role of new technologies in education(training, as they facilitate learning based on real-world problems - using a wide variety of resources such as videos, simulations, demonstrations - that increase students' motivation, provide powerful tools for visualisation and analysis of information, offer more opportunities for interaction with learning materials, communication and feedback from teachers and peers, as well as build learning communities in which a wide variety of actors can participate.
