Research Interests
My current research goal is to increase a student's learning when engaging with a tutorial dialogue system. My approach is to link computational models of dialogue to theories of macro and micro-adaptivity, mastery learning and student modeling. More generally, I'm interested in adapting content and textual presentations according to user needs.
