LEARNING, DESIGN

AND TECHNOLOGY

The LEARNING, DESIGN & TECHNOLOGY Master’s Program (LDT) prepares professionals to design and evaluate educationally-informed and empirically-grounded learning environments, products, and programs that effectively employ emergent technologies in a variety of settings. LDT tackles these challenges through a blend of coursework exploring learning theories, problem-based design methodology, a real-world internship, and a Masters’ Project focused on creating an actual learning technology.

・Personalized, multidisciplinary course of study over four consecutive quarters

・ Small cohort size of students with experience in education, design, engineering, research, and industry

・Wide array of related fields in which to work:

◦ Teaching & Administration: Technology integration in formal and informal learning settings ◦ Design & Development: Learning experiences and products; consulting; entrepreneurship

◦ Research: Doctoral studies; interaction and usability research; ed tech evaluation

◦ Leadership: Educational foundations; corporate strategy;

A P P L I E D L E A R N I N G

Present the latest in digital learning innovation to industry and education leaders

LDT students showcase their research prototypes at the annual LDT Expo

LDT student interns apply their knowledge of learning theory, network with industry leaders, and make a direct contribution to the innovation that defines Stanford University.

・Real-world Internship ◦Ten hours per week internship aligned to their program goals in one of the many research projects on campus, or in an educational, technology, or design organization for three quarters.

・ Master’s Project ◦LDTers engage in a learner-centered design process to identify important learning problems and opportunities. They apply appropriate theories about learning to create educationally informed, empirically grounded learning experiences that are enhanced by innovative technologies

“Expect to discover new ideas, expect to see things from different perspectives, and

expect to wish you had more hours in the day to take more classes. In other words, if

you expect to learn with a passion about Learning, Design and Technology then be assured that you have come to the right place.”

Brandon Suzuki, Class of 2007

"I am constantly impressed and amazed by our LDT students. They bring rich

experiences and viewpoints to the classroom and to the Stanford

community, and as alumni, they make a major impact in their careers."Shelley Goldman, Professor of Education

“Our close ties with professors and Silicon Valley allowed each of our projects to have the

potential to be developed into REAL solutions. LDT is a whirlwind of exciting opportunities

– a chance to improve education and make a footprint on the world.” Kristine Hanson, Class of 2006
