• Emerging applications of artificial intelligence in teaching and learning contexts

Her publication trajectory from 2020-2025 reveals a consistent focus on practical implementation of digital solutions in adult education. She has produced numerous practitioner-oriented guides, comparative tool reviews, and research articles addressing effective digital pedagogy while maintaining data privacy and educational quality. A significant portion of her work examines the balance between technological innovation and sustainability in educational practices, with increasing attention to AI applications since 2023. Her publications span multiple formats including peer-reviewed journal articles, practical guides, podcast productions, and digital tool reviews that directly support educators in implementing innovative approaches.

As a knowledge transfer specialist, Bliss actively participates in creating accessible resources that translate complex educational research into actionable strategies for practitioners. Her work demonstrates strong commitment to making digital education both effective and ethically sound within adult learning contexts.
