About This Event
Understanding collaborative learning is critical in making instructional and technological interventions for effective group work. Collaborative learning is both complex and dynamic, and something of a black box to researchers and practitioners. This talk will discuss how to visualize dynamic and complex collaborative learning processes, using the StoryQ project as an exemplar learning context. StoryQ is an NSF-funded project with a goal to engage high school students in hands-on practice and critical thinking about how AI (Artificial Intelligence) works and its impacts on our current and future lives and jobs. Dr. Shiyan Jiang, Assistant Professor of Learning Design and Technology in the College of Education, will describe a visualization pipeline (workflow) for qualitative research, with a special focus on a qualitative analysis of high school students' processes of building machine learning models. This pipeline could be widely adapted to other learning contexts to address research questions related to revealing patterns in learning processes.
This event is part of the NC State University Libraries on-going Coffee & Viz series. Attendees will be entered into a drawing to receive (via mail) their choice of a coffee bag or tea tin and a mug from locally-owned sweet shop Anisette.
