Learning with Generative AI

Learning with GenAI

The "Learning with Generative AI" project aims to explore the integration of generative artificial intelligence into educational settings to enhance learning through human-AI shared regulation. This initiative focuses on how learners and generative AI models can collaboratively manage the learning process through setting goals, monitoring progress, and reflecting on outcomes. By emphasizing shared control and decision-making between humans and AI, the project seeks to foster active engagement and develop learners' self-regulation skills.
