At BeLEARN, we understand translation to mean any bridge from research to practice.
The term is most commonly used in medicine and refers to interdisciplinary activities for the rapid translation of research results into practice. The term originates from Latin (translatio, from transferre = to transfer, to transfer).
Digitalization brings with it a variety of challenges – also in education. Based on research, BeLEARN develops solutions for the educational environment.
Our goal is a quick translation, as in a bridge from research into practice, to rapidly make the latest research results usable for educational purposes.
