Matthew LaGrone

Dr. LaGrone’s research explores the integration of multi-modal generative AI tools within the teaching and learning tech stack in higher education with a particular focus on how these technologies influence measurable learning gains. He is also interested in the broader organizational adoption of generative AI—how institutions are embedding these tools into existing workflows, the efficiencies they create and the friction points they expose. In parallel, he examines the cultural sentiment surrounding AI use, especially how public attitudes compare to actual behaviour, revealing a related interest in the role of social desirability bias in shaping discourse and decision-making around AI. | Religion, ethics, religious conflict and dialogue, AI, generative AI, organizations, post-secondary education, higher education
