Experience

My undergraduate is in educational technology, which is a combination of education and computer science. I’ve had  experience in developing Augmented Reality-based learning tools and designing educational games. I also took a lot of mathematics courses, and I had experience with data analysis and modeling.

Why

I like the idea of tangible interfaces, and I think it will be fascinating for students to use TUI-based learning tools, when their visual, audio and touching feelings are all involved in the learning process. I want to know more about the application and framework of tangible interfaces and see how to integrate the technology in learning to best serve learning objectives.
