Collaborative Learning with Classroom Networks: Integrating Technological and Pedagogical Innovations
National Science Foundation Early Career Award, $649,312, 2008-2014. In order to maintain a dual focus on novel forms of learning and teaching in the context of collaborative designs for networked classroom devices, this research blends two approaches. The first involves a series of design experiments in which new technology designs provide a context for exploring student […]
Collaborative Mathematics Learning with Robots
National Science Foundation, $300,000, 2012-2015 In this exploratory project we are investigating how modular robotics technology and handheld computers can be used to engage students in collaborative learning mathematics concepts. In partnership with the UC Davis C-STEM center, we are working to develop technology and design principles for infusing middle school computing and mathematics courses […]
PHoTOnICs: Physics with Tablets Outside and Inside Classrooms
National Science Foundation, $558,925, 2013-2017 The aim of the PHoTOnICs project is two-fold: 1) to design technology-based learning activities that seize on emerging digital devices, particularly tablet and mobile PCs of the kind that are quickly becoming widespread on college campuses and in many k-12 school settings, as resources for extending best practices in physics […]
