About me

I am a learning designer with Faculty of Science and Technology at Athabasca University, working with professors to design online courses for effectiveness and engagement, and explore online pedagogy and technologies to facilitate and motivate students’ learning. Currently I am also a part-time doctoral student in educational technology program at University of Eastern Finland, with research interest in adaptive learning and learning analytics.

Education

  • BEng (SUT, China)
  • MEng (XUT, China)
  • MA (EdTech) (Concordia University, Montreal)
  • Ph.D Student (EdTech) (East Finland University)

 

I believe education, rather than being a knowledge transmitter, should be a pathway of discovering and nurturing individual's talents and good natures.
