GSR (Winter Break 2018) (UC Berkeley School of Information)

Project description:

This project's aim is to integrate adaptive learning experiences into the edX online course platform. The project team consists of collaborators from edX (Cambridge, MA), OpenCraft (London, UK), and Cal's AI in Education lab, run by Prof. Pardos. There are research implications for this work, as these types of adaptive supports have never been natively supported by a large scale platform before. 

Examples of adaptive experiences we are developing:

• Next-Step recommendation within an online course
  • slides: http://people.ischool.berkeley.edu/~zp/presentations/LAS_adaptive_prese…

Adaptive review page:

• video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sm_hSnTRkW8

Qualifications:

The successful candidate for this position will be primarily working with Django and React.js web technologies. Experience with node.js and git is a plus. Please get in touch with Prof. Pardos directly (zp@ischool.berkeley.edu) with CV if interested.
