My interest lies in educational as well as memory research in
connection to IT. A number of researchers have been active in this
field by trying to boost the effectiveness of education and a variety
of learning methods by using special software and the help of
computers.

Please make a list of a few educational researchers who enjoy a good
reputation in the field. The scientists should have the capacity to
evaluate our program for long-term memorization on a scientific basis
as well as have knowledge of education-specific issues in research.
Two examples would be Seymour Papert and Andrea diSessa.

of computer-assisted learning in the classroom.

The list, below, includes links to web pages that can provide contact
information as well as descriptions of the researcher and the programs
with which they are affiliated.

I trust this information fully answers your question.  

However, please don't rate this answer until you have everything you
