Technology Integration and Evaluation (TIE) Lab

The TIE Research Lab is a Canadian Foundation for Innovation funded research laboratory that unites the research interests of co-directors Dr. Valerie Irvine and Dr. Allyson Hadwin from the Faculty of Education at the University of Victoria.

The Technology Integration and Evaluation (TIE) Research Lab is involved in a wide variety of research projects.  We also collaborate with individuals, schools, and corporations on a local, national and international level.

The purpose of the TIE lab is to strengthen research excellence regarding the appropriate use of networked and computer‐mediated technologies for enhanced communication, learning, and motivation across educational, professional, and health sectors. The TIE lab provides state‐of‐the‐art Infrastructure for systematically researching optimal e‐learning conditions, tools, processes and products.

TIE Lab infrastructure will be used for research purposes only. Research conducted through the TIE Lab will help to maintain Canada’s ranking as a leader in the field of innovation and technology.
