Paulo Carvalho

I'm an Assistant Professor in the Human-Computer Interaction Institute at Carnegie Mellon University. My research investigates the cognitive and motivational processes involved in learning to develop learner models that can be used to predict learning behavior and develop interventions and technology. My work employs a combination of computational modeling, big data analytics, and large-scale experimentation in the lab and in classrooms.

My research is funded by the National Science Foundation, IES, Schmidt Futures, and the Walton Foundation.

If you are wondering how to pronounce my last name, it sounds like karr-vah-you. The “lh” is a consonant that sounds like the ‘ll’ in the english word ‘million’, if you were to really stretch it out.
