NYU CREATE is a consortium of researchers committed to conducting research, providing education, and fostering community interaction to design evidence-based digital media that address the needs of a broad range of learners. We design simulations, games, AR, VR, web and mobile apps and other tools for learning and assessment and conduct research to understand design principles of effective digital media, and what the impact is that these tools have on cognitive, affective, and motivational outcomes.
