Teaching

I see technology as deeply embedded in our daily lives, and its full potential to transform lives for the benefit of society is yet to be harnessed. Therefore, I adopt a problem-based approach to teaching students through group projects that leverage technology to support and augment human capabilities and address complex real-world problems. In the process, I strive to help students achieve their academic and professional goals by enhancing their knowledge and problem-solving abilities.
