eLab - eLearning Lab
Welcome to the eLab website, the USI eLearning service!
The primary objective of the eLab is to improve the quality of teaching at USI through the integration of digital technologies and the promotion of innovative teaching methods. To pursue this mission, the eLab can count on an interdisciplinary and highly qualified team with proven expertise in university teaching, instructional design, educational technologies, informatics and web development. The team also draws on experts in communication, video production, graphic design, and digital law (CCDigitalLaw). This integrated approach allows us to offer comprehensive support to the USI academic community.
The lab provides USI students, faculty, and staff with the necessary infrastructure and support services, and is available for collaboration with other services or external entities.
Please consult the rest of our website for more information on areas and methods of support, training opportunities, upcoming events, and eLab projects.

eLab's annual report 2024-25
The annual report on the main activities carried out by eLab during the academic year 2024–25 has been published and is available here (in Italian only): Rapporto annuale eLab 2024-25.
eLab aims to help USI lecturers and assistants integrate digital technologies into their teaching activities in a fruitful and effective way, keeping the focus not on technologies, which are constantly being updated, but on learning and the people who learn: the "e" in front of the word "learning" is intended to imply that technologies are at the service of learning and not vice versa!
