Chang-Yen Liao (廖長彥)
Assistant Professor, Graduate Institute of Network Learning Technology, National Central University
My research expertise lies in the intersection of Artificial Intelligence and Educational Technology, with a particular focus on innovative applications of Generative AI in learning environments. My work spans across digital learning, game-based learning, learning analytics, AI chatbots, and the development of teachers’ technological literacy. I am dedicated to exploring how technology can enhance learning experiences and improve educational outcomes.
I lead several research projects that integrate AI with education, including developing AI learning companions to support students’ reading and writing, using Generative AI to facilitate co-creation of digital content between teachers and students, and designing Alternate Reality Games (ARGs) to foster learners’ problem-solving skills and narrative creativity. I am also engaged in learning analytics and educational data mining, aiming to improve teaching and learning strategies through data-driven approaches.
In teaching, I offer courses related to AI, digital learning, and game design, guiding students to explore how AI technologies can empower educational innovation. I encourage them to apply theories to real-world problems. I believe the core value of educational technology is not merely in technological advancement, but in making learning more personalized, interactive, and immersive through technology.
If you are interested in my research or teaching, I warmly welcome collaboration and exchange!
