| Report | My four week research stay at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign had two central goals. The first was to get feedback on my dissertation project from Illinois researchers Mary Kalantzis and Bill Cope. I was able to present my work to them and a group of visiting scholars. Two options for international cooperation on follow-up projects have arisen from this discussion; one with a Brazilian university and one with a different department at UIUC. The second goal was to gain insights into US teacher education. I talked to a number of teacher educators and participated in a module on digital learning. I will use the resulting ideas to improve my own classes in higher education. illinois.edu |
