About

Agnes Kukulska‐Hulme is a pioneering figure in mobile and language learning, whose research has fundamentally reshaped how we understand education in a digitally connected world. Her work centers on mobile assisted language learning (MALL), innovative pedagogies, and the role of emerging technologies like artificial intelligence in education. A major contribution is her critical examination of MALL, revealing that informal, self-directed learning with personal devices often holds richer potential than formal classroom contexts—a perspective that has influenced curriculum design globally. Her highly cited work on "Innovative Pedagogies of the Future" (144 citations) provides an evidence-based framework for equipping learners with essential 21st-century skills such as critical thinking, collaboration, and digital literacy. More recently, she has explored the complex relationship between language learners and intelligent assistants, questioning whether these AI tools serve as friends or foes in the learning process. As a Professor of Learning Technology and Communication at The Open University, UK, her research continues to guide educators and technologists in harnessing mobile and AI technologies for more inclusive, adaptive, and lifelong learning.
