Academic Interests

  • Programming pedagogy in various contexts
  • Social network analysis
  • Mixed methods
  • Learning with technology

My doctoral research explores different contexts, both digital and physical, for teaching and learning programming. I employ both quantitative and qualitative (i.e. mixed) methods such as social network analysis and interaction analysis.
