🌱 hello!
I’m Luis Morales-Navarro. I’m interested in how novices make sense of ai/ml-powered systems and issues of algorithmic justice.
I'm a PhD candidate in the learning sciences and technologies program at the University of Pennsylvania. At Penn, I’m part of Yasmin Kafai’s research group and collaborate closely with Danaë Metaxa. My work brings together perspectives from child-computer interaction and the learning sciences to study how young people develop and integrate functional and critical understandings about ai/ml and computing, and how youth can be involved in the design and evaluation of ai/ml systems.
Here you can explore publications and presentations or learn about what I’m currently working on and what I was previously up to.
