About

Judy Kay's research aims to create personalised computing that is embedded throughout the environment to support people in the broad range of activities that are important to their lives, ranging from learning to maintaining personal relationships. The core of her research is in personalisation which ensures the user can maintain control and the associated work on applications of personalisation and novel interfaces.

She has over 200 publications in the areas of personalisation and teaching and learning. She has presented invited keynote addresses at major conferences, such as UM'94 User Modeling Conference, Boston, USA; IJCAI'95 International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence, Montreal, Canada; ICCE'97, International Conference on Computers in Education, Kuching, Malaysia; ITS'2000, Intelligent Tutoring Systems, Montreal, Canada; AH2006 Adaptive Hypermedia and Adaptive Web-Based Systems, Dublin, Ireland, ITS2008, Intelligent Tutoring Systems, Montreal, Canada.

She has a strong commitment to Computer Science Education and creation of a rich student experience. She has had a long term role as staff liaison for the student society, SUITS, Sydney University IT Society, has been coach for programmig competition teams competing in the ACM Programming Competition, hosting the regional competition in 2007 and 2008 and she has been creating an alumni association, which was formally constituted in 2008 as USITAA, University of Sydney IT Alumni Association.

Editorial Positions: Associate Editor, IJAIED, the International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education; Associate Editor, IEEE TLT Transaction on Learning Technologies; Editorial Board, UMUAI User modeling and User-Adapted Interaction: the Journal of Personalization Research
