I have a joint appointment between the Department of Computer Science (Faculty of Science) and Faculty of Information and Media Studies. My research and teaching are cross-disciplinary--at the intersection of computer science, cognitive psychology, education, media and information sciences, human-computer interaction, and knowledge management.

My current research interests are in:

  • Application of cognitive, learning and knowledge sciences to interactive systems design
  • Information, knowledge, and learning architecture and design
  • Knowledge and information visualization (including visualization of stories)
  • Design of computer-based tools to assist human thinking
  • Knowledge management and organizational learning
  • Human-computer interaction design
  • Integrating multimedia and learning technology (including educational games and tele-learning)
  • Investigating interaction between the human mind and technology
