To reach their full pedagogical potential, these technologies must recognize a given student\u2019s skills and individual learning needs, and personalize instruction accordingly. In this talk, I will describe my work on the design and evaluation of models that unobtrusively detect students&#8217; cognitive, metacognitive and affective states during various problem-solving activities. I will also show how educational technologies can use student model information to tailor instruction in ways that foster learning, effective meta-cognitive strategies, and positive affect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bio:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kasia Muldner is a Research Scientist in the School of Computing, Informatics, and Decision Systems Engineering at Arizona State University.
