I completed my PhD in Educational Psychology (Learning Sciences) at McGill University.My research focuses on the use of emerging technologies to improve individual's learning experience and learning outcomes. My doctoral thesis investigated the impact of educational games on children’s math performance and attitudes towards math. Through systematic reviews, meta-analysis, measurement development, and empirical studies, my research provides important insights and practical guidance for designing effective educational games that promote better learning outcomes. My future research aims to continue explore the impacts of emergent technologies on math learning with a focus on digital educational games, AI-supported learning, and learning analytics.
