Eduweb

The studio behind Eduweb builds digital learning games and multimedia interactives, with a stated aim of combining learning theory, digital technology and play. It has worked since 1996 and describes its games as award-winning. The studio produces its own titles and also takes on projects for museums and other educational organizations around the country.

Learning games built around the humanities and sciences

Its games cover art, history, science and technology. The studio says it brings its own ideas to the games it makes for itself, so that its titles are not only commissioned work. Its own titles are shown on its site, and they illustrate the range of subjects it takes on.

Multimedia interactives for exhibitions and websites

Alongside games, Eduweb builds interactives for exhibitions and websites. These are described as in-depth interactive experiences, meant to hold a visitor's attention for longer than a passive display would. The company presents this work as a way for museums and historic sites to explain their collections in more depth.

Custom projects for partner organizations

For partners, the studio runs a structured design process. It describes this as starting with site visits and brainstorming, then moving to design documents, user testing and revisions before the finished product is delivered. The firm says this approach keeps the content, the learning goals and the look of the product aligned, with the partner's own educators involved in the process.

Who the work is for

Its clients are museums, historic sites and educational organizations that want to teach through play. The company says some of its projects are aimed at young children learning ideas that are complex for their age, and that the aim is for the learning to be engaging as well as accurate.

Approach to learning and play

The studio's stated approach is to combine three things: sound learning theory, the capabilities of digital technology and the enjoyment that keeps people using a product. It presents these as a single design discipline rather than three separate stages, which it says is why its products are meant to teach as well as entertain.

Recognition and track record

Eduweb says it develops award-winning digital learning games and interactives, and it links that record to a long run of work since 1996. The company presents its experience with museums and educational bodies as the reason it is trusted to build products that meet the learning outcomes a partner sets.
