Powered by GPT-4, Khanmigo provides personalized tutoring and interactive learning experiences. Ellen critically analyzed the data gathered during this process to evaluate the tool’s effectiveness, strengths and areas for improvement. Alongside a team of three other research assistants, Ellen conducted a comprehensive analysis of longitudinal data, applying a learner-AI engagement framework to this new data set. During her time as a research assistant, she co-authored both a research report and a poster report for the North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education (PMENA) conference proceedings. A key goal of PMENA is to promote and stimulate interdisciplinary research in mathematics education, with the cooperation of psychologists, mathematicians and mathematics teachers. The research report introduced an emerging framework for understanding learner engagement with AI tools, and it provided detailed findings from a longitudinal study of interactions between undergraduate teacher-education students and an AI tool (ChatGPT) during mathematics modeling tasks. The poster presentation highlighted a case study using Khanmigo to solve a mathematical problem centered on optimizing concert ticket pricing. These scholarly outputs are llisted below in the references section. In October 2024, Ellen will present another poster at UNT’s University Research Day. Your Gifts Make a Difference! Linda, your contributions have had a profound impact on Ellen’s academic achievements and personal growth. The research opportunities made possible by your generosity played a significant role in her successful application for the Ken Parmerter Memorial Scholarship in May 2024. This scholarship, awarded by the SEMI Texas Chapter and the SEMI Foundation, supports high school juniors and seniors pursuing technology-related fields in college. We are deeply grateful for your gifts and the impact they’ve had on Ellen Li’s scholarship and growth.
