Hi, I am Bo Pei

Research in AI in Education, Educational Data Mining, Educational Data Visualization, HCI

I am currently an assistant professor in the Instructional Technology Program at College of Education at the University of South Florida, Tampa, USA. I do interdisciplinary research in Computer Science and Education, seeking how to support an inclusive and effective teaching and learning experience with AI teachnologies.

I am passionate about solving educational problems with data-driven approaches and telling educational stories engaging and effective visualization strategies. I investigate analytical models/approaches to better model students' learning processes within large-scale, heterogenous learning data to promote personalized learning. I also closely examine the ethical issues such as data privacy and security, algorithmic transparency, trustworthiness and fariness while applying the cutting-edge techniques like AI in educational settings to support decision-making processes.

News

I am excited to announce that our work received the support from Anchin Center Bank of America Mini-Grant Program!

I am excited to annouce that our Project TutoringGPT got the support from NSF ICorps @ USF!

Position Openings

I am currently looking for several doctoral students doing Learning Analytics and Human-AI interaction in Education with me in the Department of Education and Psychological Studies at USF. If you are a well motivated and dedicated student pursuing a Ph.D. degree in instructional Technology, please send me an email with your CV.

Call for Papers

The due date of the special issue "Trustworthy AI in Education" has been extened to 12/31/2023. We are looking forward to your contribution to the field!
