OVERVIEW

Dr. Murray has been researching, publishing, consulting, and leading workshops since 1985 on subjects including: online communities, intelligent tutoring system (ITS) authoring tools, simulation-based inquiry learning environments, adaptive hypermedia, cognitive tools, discourse ethics, ethics instruction, integral philosophy, and knowledge acquisition/representation for advanced technology instructional systems. He has directed a number of educational software projects in industry and in university/college research contexts. His projects include Supporting Social Delibertive Skills Online (SSDSI), MetaLinks (adaptive hyperbooks), International Dimentions of Ethics in Science and Engienering (IDEESE), Eon (ITS authoring tools), SimForest (glass box simulation based learning environments for inquiry learning), and RASHI (tools scaffolding inquiry learning), Digital Newsroom (service learning project with college students mentoring inner city youth in creating a web site and newsletter by and for the youth of the city). In addition to his R&D activities Murray has taught graduate and undergraduate courses at Hampshire College and the University of Massachusetts.  From 1998-2001 he founded and directed the Digital Design Center at Hampshire College, which supported student-centered projects in software and 'new media' areas.  Past experience includes working at the Center for Knowledge Communication (CKC), and the Scientific Reasoning Research Institute (SRRI) at the University of Massachusetts; and industry work designing intelligent multimedia training systems (Senior Software Engineer and Project Manager, Asea Brown Boveri PPL Laboratories).

Murray has degrees in education (EdD, MEd), computer science (MS), and physics (BS). He is a member of the Executive Council of the International Artificial Intelligence and Education Society, and is on the Editorial Review Board for the International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, is an Associate Editor for Integral Review journal, and has been guest editor of several professional journal special issues. He has been an active participant in the IEEE Learning Technology Standards Committee Learning Objects Metadata Working Group.  He has co-lead conference workshops and tutorials on ITS authoring, the representation of teaching strategies, web-based ITSs, and interoperability and reusability in ITSs (at AIED-99, ASCILITE-98, ITS-98, AIED-97, AAAI F-97 Symposium, ITS-96, AI&ED-95, ED-MEDIA-94, and AAAI-93).
