The interplay of AI and Multimodal Data to support human learning 

Professor Michail Giannakos, Professor at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology in Trondheim, is a guest of Marko Markopoulos of the department of Industrial Design.

Title  |  The interplay of AI and Multimodal Data to support human learning 

The intersection of multimodal data and advanced computational analyses has the capacity to improve our understanding on how humans learn and provide novel affordances that enhance our learning, such as affective and embodied learning. Multimodal data coming from learners’ mobile devices, wearables and other ubiquitous devices not only offer new ways to detect human’s learning experience, but also enable powerful learning technologies and interfaces (via AI and ML algorithms). In this talk, Professor Giannakos will present methods and studies and our initial results on how multimodal learning analytics (MMLA) contributes to rich measurements with respect to human learning, to the interaction affordances of learning systems, and to the design and development of learning systems. Moreover, he will discuss the inherent connection of MMLA learning technologies with AI, the potential implications of putting MMLA learning technologies to practice, and potential challenges connected with ethical and methodological aspects.
