Research Activities and Interests


My research interests lie in investigating the underlying cognitive processes involved in pictorial reasoning and their implication for a teaching and learning environment. How can we best accommodate our understandings of visual information into curricula learning tools? How is the proliferation of digital technology impacting on our reception and understanding of information?
