Generative Artificial Intelligence in Programming Education

Project co-Principal Investigator

​The goal of this project is to explore the implications of generative AI tools, with emphasis on Copilot and ChatGPT, on programming education and to develop a web toolkit with resources and best practices to help teachers understand and successfully embed these tools into their teaching and assessment practices. The project is supported by the Utrecht University's Education Incentive Fund (Utrechts Stimuleringsfonds Onderwijs USO).

Timeline: 2022 - 2023
Partners: Utrecht University
Keywords: AI-enhanced software development, Generative Artificial Intelligence, Education transformation, Future-proof programming
 
CROSSCULT H2020 Project

CROSSCULT
Empowering reuse of digital cultural heritage in context-aware crosscuts of European history

Project Coordinator

The CROSSCULT research project was part of to the "Reflective Societies: Cultural Heritage and European Identities"  topic of European Commission's Horizon 2020 programme. The project consisted of 11 European institutions and 14 associated partners, from the IT, History and Cultural Heritage sectors. Our goal is to help lower cultural barriers and enable the European public to reflect on its common identity, by connecting cultural digital resources, citizen viewpoints and physical venues through technology.

Timeline: 2016 - 2019

Experimedia BLUE

Project Leader

Experimedia BLUE, an FP7 European Commission project, focused on the improvement of QoE (Quality of Experience) of museum visitors, by offering personalized routing and exhibit descriptions tailored to the visitors' visiting styles and cognitive preferences. A range of on-line and on-site technologies were used for this purpose including social network games, indoor localization, scheduling and personalized recommendations. The project involved real users, in a high-technology museum (Foundation of the Hellenic World) in Greece.

Timeline: 2012 - 2013

RHEA
Collective Intelligence based Algorithms for the Improvement of Corporate Functions with Application on Operational Risk Management 

Principal Investigator

RHEA, a project funded by the Luxembourg National Research Fund (FNR) under the Marie-Curie COFUND programme, focused on improving knowledge production in corporate wikis by designing algorithm-based mechanisms that combine the collective intelligence of the corporate crowd with machine learning and resource allocation techniques. The application field of the project was operational risk management.

Timeline: 2012 - 2014
​Partner: INRIA - Nancy Grand Est

Keywords: corporate wikis, knowledge harnessing, operational risk management
