Hi colleagues! I'm reaching out to find potential partners for an exciting research project at the intersection of human-AI interaction, anthropology, and the learning sciences. We're preparing a proposal which aims to advance humanities scholarship through AI-based technology. We are on a fast timeline (one week) and we're particularly seeking a scholar who meets the following criteria: 1. Established publishing record in human-computer interaction, viewed through an anthropological, linguistic, or cultural lens 2. Passion for and ability to participate in a human+AI research project examining these interactions from an anthropological perspective 3. Experience as a Principal Investigator on large research projects 4. University affiliation (desired, but not mandatory) If you're interested or know someone who might be a good fit, please respond to this post or contact me directly. I'd be happy to discuss the project in more detail and explore potential collaboration. Looking forward to connecting with potential partners! #ai #humanitiesresearch #learningsciences #humancomputerinteraction

Learnology Labs is excited to share our latest article on the intersection of AI, learning science, and personalized education. In this fourth article in our Knowledge Space series, Dr. Anastasia Betts explores: --The persistent challenge of learner variability in today's classrooms --Why standards-based education falls short of learning science principles --The transformative potential of AI and granular knowledge models in education We are eager to hear your thoughts on this deep dive into how we can fundamentally reshape education to serve every learner effectively.

📢 New Article Alert! We're excited to share the latest installment in our series on Knowledge Space Theory (KST) and AI-driven personalized learning, written by our Founder and Executive Director, Anastasia Betts, Ph.D. In this piece, Dr. Betts delves into the complexities and challenges of creating comprehensive knowledge models that are essential for the future of AI-powered education. Despite significant advancements in cognitive science and AI, we're still facing a gap in the creation of these models. This article explores why that is and what needs to be done to overcome these challenges. Key takeaways include: 🔍 The current shortcomings in educational knowledge representation 🌐 The evolution of knowledge modeling and the shift in knowledge authority 🔧 Future directions and the critical investments needed for building robust AI-ready knowledge infrastructures Whether you're an educator, technologist, or simply passionate about the future of learning, this article offers important insights into the hard work and investment required to harness the full potential of AI in education. #AI #Education #KnowledgeSpaceTheory #PersonalizedLearning #EdTech #LearningInnovation #KnowledgeInfrastructure

📣 Attention all Prek - 6 mathematics coaches and supervisors 📣 We are looking to interview a dozen or more of you for a project we are working on around early childhood and elementary math teaching and learning. We would be so grateful if folks would share this post with any school, district, or regional math leaders, supervisors, or coaches that you know of. If you would like to know more, or are willing to share some of your experiences as math leaders, please reach out to Anastasia Betts, Ph.D. to schedule a time to talk. Thank you so much!! #mathcoach #earlychildhoodmath #mathlearning #mathcoaching #mathleadership #elementarymathematics #mathteachingandlearning #edtech #education #matheducation

In the latest article in her series on Knowledge Space Theory and AI-driven personalization in education, Dr. Anastasia Betts shares crucial insights on the challenges of creating true knowledge models for personalized learning. 'The Knowledge Model Imperative: Why Human Expertise is Essential for AI in Education' addresses common misconceptions about AI in education and highlights the irreplaceable role of human expertise in developing effective learning systems. Dr. Betts explores why: ⭐ Standards frameworks are NOT knowledge models ⭐ Comprehensive knowledge models don't freely exist ⭐ Large Language Models can't create these essential tools ⭐ Ai-Driven Personalized Learning products can't effectively get learning outcomes without high-quality Knowledge Models This thought-provoking piece emphasizes the critical need for human-crafted knowledge models in unlocking the full potential of AI-driven personalized learning.

Hello LinkedIn community! We are looking for PARTNERS to join us on several grant funding opportunities. Please reach out to us if you know of any schools/teachers/LEAs that fit the following criteria and would be interested in: --participating in an early math professional development program for teachers design to increase their depth and breadth of the early mathematics knowledge space, and how to help learners systematically develop their mathematical knowledge, without gaps, in the early years (e.g., the science of learning mathematics) --receiving a stipend for participating in this grant / research program --earning a micro-credential for mathematics domain expertise --working collaboratively with researchers to develop, test, and iterate on mathematics learning progressions Criteria: -- we are targeting PreK through 3rd grade teachers (we may accept other grades if we do not find enough partners) --must work with student populations most at risk for math difficulty (for the purposes of the grant requirements, this means black, latino, and low income students) --must be willing to commit to a year of professional development and collaboration Some of the grant projects begin in January 2025, and others begin in September 2025. Please reach out to Anastasia Betts, Ph.D. with questions, nominations, or suggestions, thank you!

AI-driven personalization is only as good as the knowledge models upon which it is built. In our latest article, Anastasia Betts, Ph.D. dives into Knowledge Space Theory and the critical role it plays in the empowerment of efficient Ai-driven systems that result in the durable learning outcomes for students. #personalizedlearning #Ai4Education #KnowledgeModeling #EdTech #Education
