Areas of Research
Generative Artificial Intelligence in Education
My research area focuses on the integration and implications of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) within educational settings, spanning from K-12 to academia. This includes an in-depth exploration of GenAI critical literacy, aiming to equip students and educators with the ability to critically assess and effectively integrate GenAI tools into learning and teaching processes. A significant component of my work is dedicated to understanding how GenAI can be ethically and effectively used in K-12 settings, preparing younger students for a future where AI is ubiquitous. Additionally, my research delves into the ethical considerations of AI in education, including questions of authorship and ownership that arise with the use of generative AI technologies. This involves evaluating the implications of AI-generated content within academic environments and its impact on traditional notions of authorship and intellectual property. The integration of technology in educational settings, particularly the use of GenAI, offers both challenges and opportunities for enhancing learning experiences. My research seeks to identify best practices for incorporating these technologies in a way that promotes ethical use, supports educational objectives, and fosters an environment of innovation and critical thinking among students and educators alike.
