What is my role within CATALPA?
My role at CATALPA involves investigating AI's potential to provide feedback that is not only technically feasible but also pedagogically effective for learners when writing their essays.
Why CATALPA?
CATALPA addresses important questions about using artificial intelligence in education and fosters the necessary interdisciplinary interchange in approaching these questions. The collaborative environment makes working at CATALPA enriching and exciting.
