Research abstract
We propose to develop computational models and tools for rapid training and development of collective expertise. We will enhance the currently available online courses offered by NovoEd to develop approaches that automatically optimize the learning ecosystem by considering parameters of content, peer interaction and collaboration, as well as the instructor and mentors to maximize group performance. Phase I of the project includes computational modeling and design of experiments for studying and optimizing group formation and dynamics in online courses, as well as using peer feedback for increasing incentives for collaboration.
