My Teaching for 2011 is Web Programming COSC 2413 / 2426.
In semester 2, I am teaching Professional Computing Practice COSC 1147.
My Research interests are
Mobility is my main research area, and after investigating the implementation of tablet PC's in the multimedia
and design program
we experimented with Solar Blue, our bluetooth server, and undertook studies of mobile phone use on trains and trams.
We are researching visualisations of public transport movements across the city of Melbourne.
I took part in BRACE, Building Research in Australasian Computing Education,
conducting a multi-national study
on what makes a good programmer, and now in 2011 am part of an ALTC grant:
"Toward a Shared Understanding of Competency in Programming"
looking to consolidate this research and discussion around Australasia.
Here are some of my research students and publications
I have several research projects for interested students, ranging from PhD projects in software engineering,
human computer interaction and education,
to Honours, Masters and Summer Studentship research and projects. Past projects have involved
mobile computing,
bioinformatics,
constructing websites and educational e-learning research.
Please email me for further information or to organise a suitable time to discuss them.
