Research interests
number of years, I have studied learning as a social phenomenon in diverse (technology-enhanced
or co-located) social formations, varying from learning communities, teams, small groups to
dyads. Much of my work adopts a multidisciplinary and process-oriented approach.
Recently, I have carried out research on the anatomy and dynamics of productive collaborative problem solving through studying the very foundational basis of social interaction and collective intentionality such as joint attention behaviour and the role of coordination and commitment in collaboration in remote interaction context utilising multimodal data and advanced methods, such as eye-tracking.
