R&D and Consultancy


We work on our own R & D projects, exploring the boundaries of interactive media in teaching and learning.

We work with leading universities and agencies with a remit to research the use of new technologies in education. Our work includes research projects, feasibility studies and prototype development.

Our R & D projects include DoomED (a prototype learning game development project with the University of Wolverhampton, investigating scientific skills development using a First Person shooter game) and a series of proof of concepts for Nesta/Wellcome Trust, exploring new ways of using interactive media for science teaching.

We also offer a consultancy service, helping media clients to understand interactive learning design and education clients to understand interactive media. We have been involved in pioneering work for BBC Interactive, including the development of ‘learning journeys' through the BBC Health website, writing and developing the curriculum for BBC Becoming Webwise, and feasibility reports for learndirect on game-based learning.
