Human-Centered Computing

Our work in human-centered computing explores and enhances the ways in which people and communities engage with and experience technology.

Our research considers the personal, educational, cultural, and ethical implications of innovation. Drawing upon techniques from human-computer interaction, learning sciences, sensing and more, we aim to maximize the potential benefits of technology while minimizing potential harms to individuals, groups and society.
