No classes or teaching this semester.
My research goals are to enhance the education of professionals through the design and evaluation of next generation simulation-based training tools. Simulated experiences form the foundation of my research, allowing future-professionals to obtain near-real-world experience in a safe, controlled, and cost-effective manner. My research interests include:
