LEARNING
DYNAMICS
LAB

Exploring the multidimensional nature of human learning

Learning Dynamics Lab (LDL) is a multilateral, applied learning research platform, 
led by Radics Education in collaboration with Dr. Ramkumar Rajendran ( IIT-Mumbai), with a mission to empirically explore what causes durable, high quality learning, and drive the practice of evidence-based teaching-learning in Indian K12 classrooms.

Our Offering

We work with education non-profits, public school bodies and affordable private school chains to set-up and manage a range of education research projects

Experimental and Quasi-Experimental Evaluation

Evaluate causal effects of an intervention using experimental and non-experimental methods

Action and Design-driven Research

Design, test and refine interventions in real-world settings

Exploratory and Descriptive Research

Investigate new ideas and trends, generate new hypotheses and describe an ongoing practice

Meta Analysis and Systemic Reviews

Synthesize findings from multiple studies to draw broader conclusions

Current Charter

Why Learning Dynamics Lab?

Wider Range in Research Topics

Existing mainstream ed research paradigms in the global south are led primarily with a development economics lens, and poorly explain psychological, physiological and anthropological causes of/barriers to high quality learning.

​

LDL will help practitioners apply insights and tools from all learning sciences disciplines to address multidimensional teacher and student concerns across cognitive, metacognitive, affective and social factors.

Shared Resources for Research Cost Optimization

Field experiments in education are costly and often restricted to large organizations. 

​

LDL, with its diverse charter and a digital toolbox to implement high quality experiments at low cost, aims to democratize access to cutting edge learning sciences research in the Indian context.
 

Better Context Aware Hypotheses

Despite the advances in digital technologies, most schools are either unserved or underserved by existing edtech tools. Efficacy of these tools is also susceptible to underrepresentation as leading edtech approaches are shown to work for only the top 5%, most motivated and cognitively aligned learners.

​

LDL’s approach is to embed exceptional learning design and engineering capacity into promising education programs that provide proximate and holistic student support, esp in under-resourced learning environments, as opposed to  approaching edtech through top-down product hypotheses.
