I am investigating the potential of analytics and artificial intelligence solutions to support human learning. I am particularly interested in supporting people's ability to learn how to learn and solve complex problems collaboratively. In the big picture, my work aims to address the pressing social-educational challenge of preparing people for a future that will require a great deal more than the routine cognitive skills currently prized by many education systems. My research is interdisciplinary and encompasses research in the learning sciences, computer science, and Human-Computer Interaction. 

At the UCL Knowledge Lab, I manage research projects as an investigator (PI and Co-I), supervise postgraduate and postdoctoral researchers, and teach in the MA in Education and Technology programme. In addition, I am engaged in policy-making activities related to digital technologies for learning as an external expert (including UNESCO, IAEA, and EU external expert groups), part of UCL's Grand Challenges on Transformative Technologies working group, an Editor of the British Journal of Educational Technology and an Associate Editor of the International Journal of Child-Computer Interaction.
