Biography

I am a university teacher at the University of Jyväskylä's Faculty of Education. I am part of the JYULED - JYUnit for Learning and Digital Education research group, which focuses on research and development in digital learning and teaching.

Research interests

I am interested in collaborative learning and problem-solving, developing digital skills, and the opportunities and challenges of artificial intelligence and XR technologies in learning and teaching. I have been involved in several national and international research, development, and continuing education projects related to these themes. Additionally, I am interested in socio-emotional skills, interaction, and social inclusion.
