CAIRE Research Lab’s Dr. Tingting Li has been selected as a 2025 NAEd/Spencer Postdoctoral Fellow, one of the most competitive early-career awards in education research. The fellowship supports outstanding scholars advancing research that improves education policy and practice.
Dr. Li’s fellowship project, Designing an LLM-Based Multi-Agent System for Customized Science Assessments Through Multidisciplinary Human-AI Collaboration, explores how large language model–based systems can be co-designed with teachers to support formative science assessment in classrooms.
The NAEd/Spencer Postdoctoral Fellowship is awarded by the National Academy of Education (NAEd), a nonprofit U.S. organization dedicated to advancing high-quality education research, in partnership with the Spencer Foundation. The program identifies and supports early-career scholars whose work promises significant contributions to education scholarship. Fellows receive funding, professional development opportunities, and mentorship from senior education researchers.
