Research: Welcome

 

My career goal after graduating is to be a faculty member at a research-intensive university and continue contributing to the field of LDT by engaging in educational research. As a researcher, I would like to continue to conducting research to examine how technology can support teaching and learning. I am passionate about teaching as well. I would like to devote to an academic’s life with both aspects.
