When students talk to AI,
what are they really learning?
This blog documents my journey through the intersection of generative AI and human cognition. I write about how students develop agency, metacognition, and critical literacy when AI becomes part of their learning process — and what that means for how we design education.
Research interests
Metacognition & AI
How reflective interaction logs with generative AI can surface and strengthen metacognitive awareness in learners.
Agency in AI-mediated learning
Whether and how students develop critical thinking and self-directed learning when generative AI mediates their study process.
AI Literacy
Understanding AI not only as a tool but as an object of critical awareness — the cognitive and socio-ethical dimensions of being AI-literate.
Equity & Access
Technology as a lever for expanding educational access, drawing from work with low-income communities and project-based learning design.
Writing
Personal essays, reflections and notes — my voice, not formal research. Short pieces on what I'm reading, thinking, and observing about human–AI learning.
Research in progress
Longer-form academic work — papers, thesis chapters, and formal research notes. These take more time and rigour than blog posts, and some are still being shaped.
Can AI interaction logs help learners see their own thinking?
Interaction logs as a methodological and pedagogical tool for metacognitive development.
AgencyDo students become more or less independent when using generative AI?
Examining how AI-mediated decisions shape cognitive autonomy in the classroom.
LiteracyBeyond the tool: what it means to be AI-literate
Critical awareness, responsibility, and the socio-ethical dimensions of knowing how AI works.
MethodsUsing interaction data to study human reasoning with AI
What AI conversation logs reveal about the patterns hidden in how people think with machines.
