The Visual Learning Lab

The Visual Learning Lab (VLL) is a learning, teaching and research centre which supports a range of visual learning projects across the University of Nottingham.

The VLL started in March 2005 with a grant from the Higher Education Council for England (HEFCE). It is one of 74 HEFCE Centres for Excellence in Teaching and Learning (CETL) and is based in the School of Education at the University of Nottingham.

The VLL has funded a number of visual learning initiatives across the University and offers ongoing technical and logistical support to these projects. It is currently starting to evaluate them with a view to being able to offer advice based their outcomes. In January 2007, the VLL also made a series of capital awards to fund the purchase of visual learning technologies.
