TELIP 2026: Technology Enhanced Learning for Interdisciplinary Project-based Learning | IT:U
IT:U learning experts, researchers and professors are co-organising the TELIP Workshop (Technology Enhanced Learning for Interdisciplinary Project-based Learning) at the 21st European Conference on Technology Enhanced Learning (EC-TEL 2026). The workshop brings together researchers and practitioners to explore how technology-enhanced learning can support interdisciplinary project-based learning (iPBL) in higher education and workplace contexts.
As interdisciplinary collaboration becomes increasingly important for addressing complex societal challenges, learning technologies must evolve to better support teams working across disciplinary and professional boundaries. TELIP 2026 aims to develop a shared research agenda for the next decade, focusing on the challenges, opportunities, and innovations shaping technology-enhanced interdisciplinary project-based learning.
The half-day hybrid workshop will feature case presentations, collaborative discussions, and breakout sessions dedicated to identifying key challenges and defining future research directions. Participants will work together to formulate research questions, share experiences from educational and workplace settings, and contribute to a community-driven vision for future TEL research.
IT:U Involvement
The workshop is co-organised by an international committee that includes several IT:U researchers: Sebastian Dennerlein, Till Winkler, Carla Barreiros, and Alexander Steinmaurer, and Christina Nyström alongside leading experts from European and international partner institutions.
