Description

This episode features Dora Demszky, a PhD student in Linguistics at Stanford University. Dora works at the intersection of natural language processing and education. We discuss her ACL 2021 paper titled "Measuring Conversational Uptake: A Case Study on Student-Teacher Interactions", co-authored with Jing Liu, Zid Mancenido, Julie Cohen, Heather Hill, Dan Jurafsky, and Tatsunori Hashimoto.


Dora's work is motivated by creating tools that are useful for educators, so her research is not only descriptive or predictive, but also applicable to classrooms. She talks about managing large interdisciplinary teams, approaching research with care, and working with actual teachers to annotate data.
