Welcome to COIL

The Center for Online Innovation in Learning (COIL) provides a hub to engage the University’s extensive research enterprise to improve online learning at and beyond Penn State. The core mission of the COIL is to guide the transformation of teaching and learning processes by inventing, implementing, investigating, or supporting researchers who want to investigate the effects of technologically enhanced learning environments. We are particularly interested in the effects of technological tools for improving the quality of, efficiency of, or access to higher education.
