Overview
Kento Koike, Ph.D.
- Assistant Professor, Department of Information and Computer Technology, Faculty of Engineering, Tokyo University of Science (Akakura Lab)
I am driven by the question, “What is necessary for people to learn, think, and grow better?”, aiming to create systems that optimize human thinking and learning. By integrating knowledge from interdisciplinary fields such as cognitive science, educational psychology, and artificial intelligence, I pursue both theoretical and practical approaches to innovate educational technologies and learning design.
Previously, I was a program-specific researcher at the Academic Center for Computing and Media Studies (Ogata Lab), Kyoto University, and a full-time manager or outside consultant at manabo Inc., where I engaged in various practical projects. I am also currently active as a Collaborative Researcher at the Research Liaison Centre, Chiba Institute of Technology.
My research focuses on understanding learning and cognitive processes to design and evaluate more effective and intuitive learning support technologies. Specifically, I work on Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS), the design of learning tasks, and the development of learning support agents to address challenges in educational settings.
To revolutionize learning, I aim to bridge theory and practice by incorporating diverse perspectives in my research and development activities.
