Chandan Dasgupta, Educational Technology, Indian Institute of Technology, India cdasgupta@iitb.ac.in		Dr. Chandan Dasgupta is an Assistant Professor in the Department of IDP-Educational Technology at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) in Bombay, India. His research interests focus on (a) designing learning environments for supporting integrated STEM learning (both formal and informal contexts), (b) use of counterexamples as primary generators for supporting productive disciplinary engagement, (c) designing technological scaffolds for integrating design thinking and scientific inquiry, and (d) providing feedback to teachers and students to scaffold the design thinking process. He is also interested in exploring the application of educational neuroscience and its implications for designing learning environments.
Luis Neri, Physics, Tec de Monterrey, Mexico neri@itesm.mx		Dr. Luis Neri is a Full-time Professor of the Department of Sciences of the School of Engineering and Sciences of Tecnológico de Monterrey, Mexico City Campus. His lines of research include: i) the development, implementation and evaluation of virtual environments, such as online adaptive systems, collaborative online systems and simulators, mainly for the learning of Sciences and Engineering, ii) the use of analytical adaptive learning to develop predictive models of student performance; and iii) the implementation and measurement of students' learning impact on active learning strategies (problem-based learning, collaborative learning, project-oriented learning).
