D.Sc. Candidate
Distance Education Designer
Currently a doctoral student in Design at PUC-Rio; Master's degree in Design at PUC-Rio (2018); Specialist in Interface Design, Usability and Information Architecture at PUC-Rio (2010); Bachelor’s degree in Communications / Editorial Production at UFRJ (Federal University of Rio de Janeiro) (2002). I have been working in the design/webdesign area for more than 20 years and, since 2003, in one of the largest public E-learning programs in Brazil, the CEDERJ Consortium. My academic research focuses on the relationship between Design, Education and technology and I currently research the possible consequences of autonomous intelligent educational systems on people, in a Human-Centered Design approach.

Do intelligent learning and assessment processes think about people? A HCD approach to EdTech
Researchers and corporations are studying, developing, and even releasing "intelligent" systems that allow cognitive data measurement and recording, predicting future learning performances, autonomous correction of exercises, and generation of examples without human participation, among other functions. When approaching this scenario from the Human-Centered Design (HCD) perspective, this research, so far, entitled “Do intelligent learning and assessment processes think about people? A HCD approach to EdTech” seeks to discuss the positive and negative effects on students, teachers, and other stakeholders affected by these tools. Measuring, analyzing, and recording students' cognitive performance and emotional behavior would enable personalized and up-to-date learning, tailored to students' potential and intelligence. AI assistants would also be able to give teachers more time to prepare their classes. What could be the side effects in this scenario? Could continuous ultra-customization diminish an individual's adaptability and resilience? Could it lead to a culture of exacerbated individualism? Which pedagogical structures and options should follow and guide these processes? Who would be the real assistants: the teachers or the systems?
