معرفی
Dr. Audrey Serna is a Senior Lecturer (HDR) at the National Institute of Applied Sciences of Lyon (INSA Lyon) and researcher at LIRIS laboratory, leading the SICAL team. She holds joint PhDs in Computer Science (University of Sherbrooke) and Cognitive Science (INP Grenoble), with postdoctoral experience at University of Grenoble. Her interdisciplinary work bridges Human-Computer Interaction and Cognitive Science.
Research focuses on designing adaptive interactive systems through:
- User modeling: Analyzing activity patterns and engagement metrics
- Motivational design: Gamification, persuasive affordances
- Multi-device/VR environments: Classroom technologies and immersive learning
Recent publications demonstrate strong focus on:
- Virtual Reality applications for chemistry education and safety training
- Longitudinal studies of adaptive gamification in learning systems
- Collaborative interfaces for multi-device classrooms
- Design frameworks for child-centered educational games
Current PhD students include Anthony Basille (collaborative games) and former advisee Stuart Hallifax (adaptive gamification). Dr. Serna leads several ANR projects including LudiMoodle+ (adaptive gamification) and immersive chemical risk training systems.
Her SICAL research group at LIRIS develops technologies including:
- VR environments for reflective learning
- Multi-surface collaborative systems
- Adaptive gamification engines
