Research Summary
My research endeavors primarily highlight three academic passions: (1) developing, evaluating, and implementing immersive learning technologies in healthcare profession education, (2) measuring the learning experience through a multidimensional lens, and (3) working with pre-service teachers on technology adoption with a focus on AI in education. Methodologically speaking, my work often applies mixed methods approaches.
