Dr. Megan Humburg
Learning Scientist, Indiana University
My research centers on designing interdisciplinary learning activities, technologies, and environments that engage learners' emotions and build social connections as a foundation for powerful collaboration and learning. I leverage educational technologies, embodied learning, and sociocultural theories of learning to thoughtfully design for integrations between STEM, Arts, & Humanities disciplines.
I currently work as an Assistant Research Scientist at Indiana University as a part of the Center for Research on Learning and Technology. My project work involves designing narrative-centered learning environments that interface with artificial intelligence (AI) technologies to adaptively support student engagement and learning. In particular, I am passionate about AI literacy and I promote ethical and sustainable approaches to AI through my research designs and my professional development work with K-12 teachers.
Posts for Educators
In addition to academic publications, I also write short articles and create resources for educators to share my own research as well as to help communicate ideas from the learning sciences.
