interests

Design of Digital Learning Resources, specifically develop easy-to-use interactive simulations, and include mathematical modelling where appropriate

Learning and Content Management System, such creation of folder structure and automatic display of images, buttons and documentation

Coding Literacy, focusing on coding computational thinking in Mathematics and Science, use language such as JavaScript, CSS, HTML, PHP, PY etc.

Projects

Promoting joy of learning by turning phone into 3 scientific equipment

2018 - 2019

Prototype use of mobile apps to collect data through phone camera and sensors for laboratory experiments. Apps used include polariser, light spectrometer, sound analyzer and radioactive reader.

[Co-Principal Investigator]

Virtual Lab Learning Analytics-Moodle extension

2018 - 2019

Study how data on students’ ‘micro-level’ interaction with simulations can provide insights for teachers to make data-informed decisions, and for designers to enhance the design of the simulations.

[Principal Investigator]

Explore Useful Learning Mathematics Apps

2017 - 2018

Proposed an approach to design and develop open-source Mathematics learning simulations, compatible with almost any mobile devices in an efficient and sustainable manner.

[Principal Investigator]
