I have a broad range of research interests and while most involve innovations in digital technology not all them do. For example, I am also very interested in the relationship between inquiry and the development of wisdom -- and during 2019-2020 I am part of a team researching how 'local wisdom' might inform the development of future curricula in school education. Another example is "open educational practices".
