Become an Affiliate of the Discovery Learning Research Center
The Discovery Learning Research Center (DLRC) invites members of the Purdue University

The Learning Center in Discovery Park will be home to faculty and students
engaged in interdisciplinary learning and discovery related to pedagogies
and strategies relevant to the learning environment. The DLRC Affiliates
Program seeks to foster and enhance communication among teachers, learners,
and researchers to explore new, sometimes futuristic technologies, pedagogies,
and strategies relevant to the learning environment.
