How are you using #LearningEngineeringToolkit? We've seen it used as textbook, in book club, in professional development & more. If you are coming to #IEEE #LearningEngineering conference, remember to bring your copy. If you don’t have one, get it here: lnkd.in/ezsBkKqY
CMU's School of Computer Science is launching a new Generative AI Innovation Incubator. The initiative invites stakeholders at every level to join together to shape the future of generative AI. cs.cmu.edu/generative-ai/
They are hosting a series of virtual events this summer. The opening keynote talk is Friday, May 19, 11 a.m. EST, by Tom Mitchell, one of the founders of the field of Machine Learning. cs.cmu.edu/generative-ai/eve…
CMU learning science researchers John Stamper, Norman Bier and Steven Moore are part of a team that won first place in the XPRIZE Digital Learning Challenge, a competition to find and improve the most effective learning tools. cmu.edu/news/stories/archive…
The team developed a tool that allows educators to conduct experiments in the classroom to determine which teaching methods are most effective.
"We want teachers to be able to adapt their curriculum quickly to fit the needs of their students. This allows them to send different messages, questions, and motivational prompts to groups of students in their class and see which one resonates ... " — @StevenJMoore

Learning science experts from @cmuhcii wanted to know why some students learn faster than others. What they found was surprising: In the right conditions, people learn at a remarkably similar rate. cmu.edu/news/stories/archive…

"The data showed that achievement gaps come from differences in learning opportunities and that better access to such opportunities can help close those gaps." — @koedinger
We are accepting proposals for Simon Initiative Seed grants! @CarnegieMellon faculty interested in pursuing learning research or educational practice projects aimed at improving student learning outcomes may apply. cmu.edu/simon/opportunities/…
We've extended the deadline for our Simon Initiative seed grants to March 1, 2023. cmu.edu/simon/opportunities/…
