Educational Research Interests

Robotics as a catalyst that blends academic and social learning theory in a way that fosters an energetic, self-motivated community of learners. (LEGO Robotics)
- Goal in progress. Continued interest in this area of research. Spring robotics class included a number of "alumni" students, engineers, scientists, mathematicians, and programmers from the base, and community members in an environment that mentored first semester students and created a very involved, energetic learning community.
Metaverse environments as an innovate learning space where students are able to not only chat but where they can create their own learning experiences and construct their own knowledge in collaboration with others. (Second Life)
- Goal in progress. Second Life used as a meeting and collaboration space with S.I.T. club officers in the spring semester.
The impact of social networking on teaching and learning. (MySpace, Facebook)
- Goal in progress. Continued use of social networking tools as a means of communication with students. Would like to investigate more the impact this contact has on student learning.
