Check out our new pub on students’ perceptions towards AI-facilitated feedback. @JingwenHe28 Students overwhelmingly preferred human authored feedback. However, they were not able to clearly distinguish between human authored vs AI facilitated feedback. tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

Thanks to Show Me Mizzou writing this story about my research on leveraging trace-data to diagnose students' #engagement and its relationship with #motivation. Here is the link to the original publication: link.springer.com/article/10.100…

I am recruiting a Visiting Research Assistant Professor in @MizzouEducation who will work closely with me on projects studying K–12 students’ motivation and engagement in science learning. Apply here: mizzou.us/58017

Thank you to everyone who joined our State of the College address. Our vision centers on innovation, collaboration, and statewide partnerships that elevate our land-grant mission. Looking forward to what we’ll achieve together. M-I-Z!!! @MizzouEducation

We welcomed leaders from Columbia Public Schools to @MizzouEducation to discuss strengthening our partnership. My vision is to position our college as a translational bridge between research and practice where collaboration with local schools enhances both learning and impact.

Dr. Brenda Lohman @bjlohman representing @MizzouEducation speaks about the intersections between health and human sciences at @APLU_News 2025 annual conference. “Building bridges and breaking silos for collaboration is critical.”

#AERA2026 submissions notifications are being sent out today. Thank you to everyone who submitted - we're looking forward to seeing you in Los Angeles in April 2026!

Excited to share this podcast facilitated by @Mizzou Teaching and Learning Center, where Cynthia and I discussed AI in Education. I am grateful to be part of an AI-forward institution that fosters continuous conversations around how AI is transforming teaching and learning.

Real-world problems can’t be solved by one field alone, by connecting our colleges intentionally, #Eduneering, we can generate new ideas, strengthen research capacity, and make a broader impact. I look forward to seeing what emerges when we break down silos and innovate together.

Lab schools like Child Development Lab (CDL) in @MizzouEducation is a place where research and practice come together in service of children. For over 100 years, CDL has served our community for generations. It has supported research and training from across campus. @MizzouHDFS

The CDL celebrated its grand reopening and became the first in Missouri to receive Quality Assurance Recognition from the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education’s Office of Childhood. Read more at: brnw.ch/21wX6O9

A pleasure of joining district leaders from across Missouri to discuss challenges facing our schools, from teacher shortages to AI in education, reaffirming the power of partnership in advancing student success. Proud of how @MizzouEducation #MPER lead alongside school partners.

The Junior Faculty Coffee & Conversations with Dean Xie event was a great success! Faculty from across the College of Education and Human Development gathered for meaningful dialogue, connection, and collaboration.

“Our research shouldn’t just live in journals — it should come alive in classrooms.” That’s the vision Kui Xie, Dean and Joanne H. Hook Dean’s Chair in Educational Renewal, shared at today’s MU Partnership for Educational Renewal (MPER) meeting.

So inspired by our 2025 Philanthropy Brunch — a powerful reminder of the ripple effect of generosity. Thanks to all donors whose support fuels our scholarships, research, and innovation. Together, we’re investing in future leaders and change makers across Missouri and beyond.

Cellphones in schools: more US states are taking action to reduce student distraction without eliminating tech access theconversation.com/cellphones-in-… via @KuiXiePHD & @ProfFlorence

Check out our new article with @ProfFlorence in @ConversationUS. With school devices widely available, cellphones add little to learning and often distract. But technology itself remains vital for teaching and learning when used with clear purpose. theconversation.com/many-us-states…
