Juho Leinonen

Hello! I’m a tenure-track assistant professor and an academy research fellow at the Department of Computer Science at Aalto University. Previously, I was a postdoc at The University of Auckland, Aalto University, and the University of Helsinki, where I also completed my PhD in 2019. I also hold the title of docent from the University of Helsinki.
The key question that my research seeks to answer is how to best support and engage diverse learner populations with educational technology and artificial intelligence. My research tackles this challenge in three intertwined ways: 1) by developing deeper insights into students’ learning through fine-grained learning analytics; 2) by utilizing educational technology, artificial intelligence, and large language models to support both students and teachers; and 3) by leveraging learnersourcing to create ample learning opportunities tailored to distinct student needs.
