I am a Research Fellow at Adelaide University's Centre for Change and Complexity in Learning (C3L) in the School of Education, where I lead a research program at the intersection of learning analytics and artificial intelligence in education. Collaboration is among the most valued capabilities in modern curricula, yet it remains largely invisible to assessment. Beginning with my doctoral work on team cohesion in technology-mediated learning, I have progressively built the methods and tools to make collaborative problem-solving (CPS) observable in authentic settings. Central to this agenda is an AI platform I lead at C3L that captures CPS skills and learning dispositions in real time from classroom interactions and delivers evidence-informed feedback to teachers — moving the field beyond post hoc evaluation of teamwork toward responsive, in situ support for collaboration. I employ mixed methods with a commitment to equity by design, developing AI technologies that mitigate bias and cultivate an inclusive, AI-competent workforce. A complementary strand of my research examines human-AI teaming, how trust forms in human-autonomous teams and what AI requires to be a credible analytic partner in learning. Both strands converge on a single ambition: assessment of collaboration that teachers can trust and act on.
