Research Projects

The Center for Collective Learning is a multidisciplinary research laboratory focused on understanding the growth, accumulation, and value of socially embedded knowledge. For decades, our team has contributed to understanding patterns of economic diversification, growth, and development. We also have new areas of research focused on digital democracy and people’s perception of technology.

For decades, economics has relied on the use of statistics as its battle-horse for empirical analysis. Today, machine learning tools provide a new way to understand economic development.

By learning more about the way we cummulate knowledge, we might just get a few steps closer to understanding the world around us.

Rankless (2024) is an interactive platform designed to explore and highlight the unique contributions of thousands of universities worldwide.

Can digital technologies augment democracy? We design, test, and develop tools to support civic participation.

Starting in 2010, our team has been working to understand how people perceive the urban environment and the implication of such perception.

Our former projects, Immersion and Open Teams offer a unique way of looking at team dynamics.
