CIRES Chief Investigator Hassan Khosravi and the RiPPLE team have been named a finalist for the Queensland AI Research Project of the Year at the Queensland AI Awards 2024 for their project RiPPLE: Harnessing student wisdom to improve learning.

A huge thank you to The University of Queensland, UQ Institute for Teaching and Learning Innovation (ITaLI) & UniQuest for their unwavering support, and to Queensland AI Hub for this incredible recognition.

RiPPLE represents a pioneering approach in the education sector where we believe that every student has the potential to create impactful waves in the ocean of knowledge. Instead of being passive recipients of content, we want to empower students to spread their wisdom, contribute to knowledge creation and transform their learning into an active social and personalized learning experience. It uniquely integrates the principles of co-creation with advanced AI technologies to enable educators to partner with students to develop a peer-reviewed repository of study resources. These resources are then used to engage individual students with personalized instruction tailored to their specific learning needs.
