Post-Doctoral Research Fellows [Research Center for Science and Technology for Learning, Taiwan]
We are seeking for
motivated and enthusiastic post-doctoral
research fellows to join an ongoing project led by Prof. Tak-Wai
Chan. The
project is funded by National Science Council, Taiwan:
one-to-one technology
enhanced classrooms and research community.
The project is an
interdisciplinary project, aiming to
transform formal and informal education through one-to-one
learning, in which
every student uses at least one computing device to learn,
enables learning
experience to continue even the situated learning environments
may switch from
one another. We have observed the emergence of mobile,
connected, personal, and
low-priced computing device is thrusting technology enhanced
learning into a
new realm, both in research and in practice. Thus, the real
world education, formal
and informal, will be potentially greatly improved by one-to-one
learning.
The post-doc
fellows will be associated with three
research groups under the project: game platform, content
design, and experimental
schools. The three groups aim to investigate how one-to-one
technologies could
foster digital classroom learning from the three different
perspectives of
information and game technology, digital content and pedagogical
design, and
classroom practice and teacher training, respectively. In
addition, the fellows
will be expected to contribute to the coordination among these
three research
groups so that the research project could be conducted smoothly.
A PhD degree
in the relevant field, such as computer science, educational
technology, and educational
psychology, is required.
