About SMILE Lab
About SMILE Lab
SMILE Lab is housed in the CET (Centre for Educational Technology) at IIT Bombay. We analyse student learning data using AI, including AIED and GenAI, to develop tools that enhance educational experiences. The aim is "to develop a better understanding of the learning process in order to improve the teaching-learning process.".
This lab's research is in learning analytics in intelligent learning environments (ILEs). The importance of providing personalized learning content to the learners has led researchers to include affective states, cognitive strategies, and metacognition (CAM) in the learner models of ILEs. Hence, the research goal is to help novice learners work on a complex decision-making problem in ILEs by studying the interaction between CAM processes to model their self-regulated learning behavior using multi-modal learning analytics.
