Project Overview
We are seeking an experienced researcher with a background in education and cognitive accessibility to help us scope a new strategic area. The primary objective is to conduct a comprehensive literature review and research synthesis exploring effective learning support for neurodivergent learners. This research will evaluate what successful support looks like, identify common barriers, and analyze how these principles translate to AI-driven and multimodal learning tools.
Key Responsibilities
- Literature Review & Synthesis: Conduct a thorough review of existing literature regarding learning support for neurodivergent and SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities) learners.
- Barrier Analysis: Identify and document what gets in the way of effective learning for these populations.
- Technology Translation: Analyze how effective support mechanisms and existing barriers map onto the design and deployment of AI and multimodal learning tools.
- Scoping & Strategy: Leverage the synthesized research to help our team define and scope a new product or research area.
