Chenyang Wang 王晨阳

I am a Research Scientist (Collaborateur Scientifique) based in Switzerland🇨🇭, pursuing interdisciplinary research in Human-Computer Interaction, Human-Robot Interaction, and Learning Sciences. My current research explores how dialogue between humans and (embodied) AI systems can foster deeper learning and thinking, as well as how AI can open new possibilities for collaborative learning.

Broadly, I am passionate about designing and evaluating educational technologies that are effective, human-centered, and sustainable in real-world learning environments. My work combines human-centered design, system development, user studies in lab and classroom settings, and data-driven approaches to understand how emerging AI systems can better support both learners and educators.

I received my PhD from the Computer Human Interaction for Learning and Instruction Lab (CHILI Lab) at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL), under the supervision of Prof. Pierre Dillenbourg. I am currently a Research Scientist working with Prof. Ken Holstein at CoALA Lab, and I am also partially affiliated with the HAIS Lab at BFH, working with Prof. Thiemo Wambsganss. Previously, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the MOBOTS Lab with Prof. Francesco Mondada.
