Abstract	Purpose: Fischer "et al." (2022) present a framework for rethinking education, including broad design components such as learning-on-demand or learning takes place in the context of authentic problems. How can we bring those design components into practice? I argue that the design of innovative learning approaches for the digital age requires rigor in design and evaluation methods to understand what works and how and why it works. Design/methodology/approach: This case study applies the research to improve approach with iterative steps of design, development, and formative evaluation. Methods to be used are borrowed from user and learning experience fields, such as usability studies and pre/posttests for learning growth. Findings: The design of digital learning experiences rests on the three dimensions of how learners interact with (a) the digital tool, space, or service; (b) the pedagogical elements of goals, activities, and assessments (e.g. sense-making); and (c) other peers or instructors. Originality/value: This study provides useful insights on how to conduct research to improve versus research to prove and indicates the importance of data analysis related to the effectiveness, efficiency, and attractiveness of digital learning experiences. Learning experience design and research provides sufficient rigor and could play an important role in new ways of learning in the digital age with the goal "making learning a part of life" as pointed out by Fischer "et al." (2022). (As Provided).
