Short Biography:
Theresa Zobel earned her bachelor’s and master’s degrees in IT systems engineering at the Hasso Plattner Institute (HPI) in 2020. She is currently working as a research assistant and doctoral student on the development of an intelligent learning assistant, a dialog agent, designed to enhance users’ learning experience and help them navigate MOOC platforms. In addition to her academic work, Theresa finds deep satisfaction in her volunteer work at the LEO Club Quadriga Berlin, where she plays, does handicrafts, and goes on small excursions, for example, with the children of the Children’s Heart Center Berlin or also a children’s residential group.
Current PhD Projects:
My current PhD project focuses on the development of dialog-based systems known as intelligent learning assistants, tailored to different Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) platforms on various topics. These intelligent assistants are designed to guide learners through platform navigation, initiate their engagement with MOOCs, and facilitate access to a wide range of information resources. They also employ motivational techniques to promote sustained learning, offer complementary information, and provide intelligent support throughout the learning process to enhance the overall MOOC experience for users.
