Sponsored by DBASSE and Issues in Science and Technology magazine, the 2024 Henry and Bryna David lecture will feature Dr. Shuchi Grover, Director of AI and Education Research at Looking Glass Ventures. Join us for this engaging and timely lecture, which will be followed by a Q&A session. A reception will be held following the lecture for those attending in-person.
The slow, relentless creep of computing is currently in overdrive with powerful AI tools impacting every aspect of our lives. What should learners and teachers understand about these technologies in order to use them in ways that are empowering and equitable? What role can policy, research, and education stakeholders play to ensure that these tools are leveraged to serve our goals of educating the next generation of citizens and problem solvers. And most importantly, what are enduring lessons from the social sciences in guiding and envisioning socio-technical learning systems in the age of AI?
Dr. Grover is a a computer scientist and learning scientist by training who has been committed to PreK-12 computing education in formal and informal settings for over two decades. She holds a Ph.D. in Learning Sciences and Technology Design with a focus on K-12 computer science education (Stanford University), master’s degrees in education (Harvard University) and computer science (CWRU, Cleveland), and bachelor’s degrees in computer science and physics (India).
The Henry and Bryna David Endowment makes an annual award to a leading researcher who has drawn insights from the behavioral and social sciences to inform public policy. The DBASSE Advisory Committee selects a prominent behavioral or social scientist to make a presentation to an invited audience at the National Academy of Sciences and publish an article in Issues in Science and Technology.
