Here should be introductions.
I received my Ph.D. in Informatics from the Graduate School of Informatics, Kyoto University, in Sep. 2023.
Associate Prof., Research Institute for Information Technology, Kyushu University, from May. 2026.
My research focuses on data-driven group learning in data-driven environments with Learning Analytics and Generative AI, including algorithmic group formation, peer tutoring, and group learning design support.
For further details, please take a look at my publications.
