Helping Students Reach Their Potential

Equipping students with the right tools and opportunities creates an inclusive educational environment that narrows equity gaps, ensuring equal success opportunities for all. The LSI team is dedicated to promoting fairness and fostering student success through continuous research, evaluation, and strategic insights on utilizing digital resources.


Fostering a Sense of Belonging

When students feel a sense of belonging, their likelihood of success increases, and prioritizing the creation of inclusive learning environments ensures everyone feels welcome. Through research and development rooted in learning science, the goal is to cultivate belonging by offering a safe space for collaboration, while recognizing and celebrating each student's unique contributions.


Committed to Removing Barriers and Promoting Fairness through Digital Learning Resources

Digital resources are designed with equity in mind, featuring adaptive learning, accessibility options, and culturally responsive content to meet the unique needs of each student. This approach is especially important for historically marginalized students who may face additional challenges in the traditional learning environment.


Amplifying the Voices of Historically Marginalized Students

We firmly believe that every student can succeed and we want to provide the tools to make that happen. To ensure that digital resources are equitable and inclusive, it is crucial to actively collaborate with students, instructors, and institutions from historically marginalized communities. Prioritizing their voices and contributions ensures that the development of digital resources is tailored to serve all learners effectively.
