Seventh Annual Workshop on A/B Testing and Platform-Enabled Learning Engineering

This half-day workshop brings together researchers and practitioners from various disciplines to explore how A/B testing and learning engineering apply uniquely in digital learning platforms. It addresses challenges presented by experimentation in educational contexts, such as raising awareness of research opportunities within learning platforms, and the role of balancing improvements to software and supporting open and generalizable science. The workshop examines how learning platforms offer exciting possibilities for educational research and how evidence-based methods can drive meaningful gains in student learning. Submissions are invited on topics ranging from novel experimentation methods, ethical considerations in educational experimentation (such as when using generative AI), platform-specific research designs, and the practical realities of running experiments in schools and online learning environments.
