The Digital Technology, Communication and Education (DTCE) Research and Scholarship group in MIE are advertising an exciting full-time Post-Doctoral post exploring digital technology’s role in personalising learning and assessment. The job advert went live yesterday with applications closing on January 31st. The role offers a unique opportunity that sits at the intersection between education, education technology, computer science/software engineering and digital technology for global development. Working closely with colleagues at the EdTech Hub (the world’s largest education technology research initiative), in addition to data scientists and software engineers, the intention is to drive forward research to investigate the potential of digital personalised learning to support learners and teachers (initially based in Kenya). The potential for research impact is large – around 100k learners access the personalised learning tool central to the study daily. Over the past year, the development of this tool has been informed by UoM-led research that is currently being evaluated through a randomised trial featuring 300 schools. This means the successful applicant will form part of a large international team, although they will retain significant autonomy over determining their own research agenda to match their experience and interests.
