Research interests:
My overarching research interest is geared to learning and teaching, especially communication and learning with media and information and communication technologies (ICT). My methodological interests lie in the relationship between learning and development in the individual and social, institutional, and material/technological conditions. Specific research areas worth mentioning are learning from multimedia representations, spatial cognition, learning styles and learning strategies, distance education and open/flexible education, and functions of information and communication technologies in changing educational practices. In terms of subject matter, my research focuses on mathematics and science.
Teaching interests:
I teach at the postgraduate and master’s levels in areas like educational psychology, Learning, communication, and IT, distance education and flexible learning, and analysis of interaction.
Keywords:
