AI Research Scientist: Education and Training
-
Jan 1998 - Present
Grant proposal writer, 1998-presentOne of the primary grant proposal writers for Stottler Henke Associates. Developed and proposed innovative artificial intelligence based solutions in the area of education technology and Intelligent Tutoring Systems. Project Manager and AI Research Scientist, 1998-presentManaged more than ten projects involving the design and development of intelligent tutoring systems for several domains including: reading comprehension, high-school Algebra, helicopter piloting, leadership skills, and graph algorithms. Managed teams of lead software engineers and developers. Managed schedules, budgets, and resource allocation. Managed client requirements, interactions, and expectation. Delivered projects on time and within budget. Highlights:Adaptive trainer for IT professionals: Led a large, multi-organizational team in developing a simulation-based, adaptive training system for IT professionals. The trainer uses virtual networks to provide hands-on troubleshooting experience. An intelligent, automated tutor monitors student performance and provides just-in-time, context-sensitive feedback and coaching. The training system has been demonstrated to significantly improve IT troubleshooting performance.Chat Mining and Visualization Tool : Led the development of a chat visualization tool to support large team training exercises. The tool that helps visualize a large volume of messages spread over several chat rooms. Developed a machine learning approach to automatically separate chat messages into topics using a combination of heuristic rules and supervised learning techniques. Adaptive trainer for teaching reading comprehension skills: Led a team of engineers in developing an adaptive reading tutor targeted at adults. The system was independently evaluated as a part of a suite of tools for reading interventions and found to lead to substantial learning gains. Show less
