The Atypical Learners Research Group focuses on understanding and supporting the learning experiences of children and adolescents with atypical developmental trajectories. Our work addresses a broad spectrum of learning challenges, including neurodevelopmental disabilities, specific learning difficulties, and learning loss resulting from disruptions such as the COVID-19 pandemic.

Guided by principles of inclusivity and innovation, the group explores how tailored interventions, assistive technologies, and inclusive teaching strategies can reduce learning barriers and improve outcomes. Our interdisciplinary team draws on expertise in educational psychology, learning sciences, cognitive psychology, special education, and neuroscience to develop and evaluate evidence-based practices that support meaningful, equitable learning for diverse learners.

We welcome collaboration with educators, researchers, and community partners who share our commitment to inclusive education and advancing learning opportunities for all.

This group explores the use of cutting-edge technologies to enhance human learning and development. Key areas include artificial intelligence (AI), immersive techniques (AR/VR), gamification, learning analytics and educational data mining. It also investigates how technologies such as AI-powered platforms and predictive analytics can optimise learning, workforce development and organisational learning. Research aims to integrate advanced cognitive and neuroscience principles with technology to create personalised, engaging, and impactful learning and development experiences.

Key Research Areas:

• Cognitive and Brain-Based Learning Models:
  Researching advanced cognitive and neuroscience learning principles, and how they can be integrated with advanced learning tools to support deeper learning, problem-solving and critical thinking.

• Learning and Development Enhancement through Advanced Technologies and Methods
  Investigating how emerging technologies, combined with innovative methods, can enhance learning environments for diverse learners by increasing engagement, personalising learning, and optimising outcomes.
• Learning Analytics and Data Mining
  Using big data and machine learning techniques to analyse learner performance data, predict learning outcomes and inform data-driven decision-making in learning.
• Learning Experience Design (LXD)
  Merging design thinking with learning principles to create impactful, learner-centred experiences that are both functional and emotionally engaging.
