The
EQUATOR Project is part of a 10 million pound initiative, funded by the
EPSRC, running from 2000-2006. It is an Interdisciplinary Research
Collaboration (IRC) concerned with innovation and, in particular,
exploring the relationship between the physical and the digital - in
all walks of life. Eight British universities are taking part in the
IRC, with about 100 researchers and Phd students involved.
This project started in January 2007 and is working
with teachers to identify new ways of teaching and learning with
e-Science. Our research collaborators are the London Knowledge
Lab and Mixed Reality Lab (Nottingham).
