Marlon Kuzmick
Marlon Kuzmick directs the Learning Lab at Harvard’s Bok Center for Teaching and Learning, where he works with faculty and students to design experiments at the intersection of teaching, technology, and creative practice. Trained as a writing teacher in the Harvard College Writing Program, he continues to approach pedagogy from the perspective that students aren’t just “learning to write” but “writing to learn.” This orientation now extends into multimodal communication—film, data visualization, performance, digital media—and into the rapidly evolving world of generative AI.
At the Learning Lab, Marlon leads projects that treat academic communication as a site of invention: media and AI systems are not just vessels for ideas but engines for generative thinking and transformative learning. Current initiatives include supporting faculty in the responsible adoption of generative AI for teaching and research, developing experimental AI-driven classrooms and studio environments, and training students and instructors alike to use emerging tools critically, creatively, and rigorously. His work emphasizes building pilots and prototypes—whether in writing, media production, or AI augmentation—that help higher education imagine what teaching and scholarship can become.
