SMART Technologies for the Classroom: Supporting Collaboration and Inquiry Year Two

Since 1991 SMART Technologies has infused classrooms around the world with powerful interactive technologies, principally the “SMART Board” which sets a standard for interactive whiteboards. The SMART Board has been featured in many innovative designs for learning and instruction – some coming from academic research, and many from classroom teachers as they integrate touch boards into their own instructional practice. This postdoctoral research program will extend and apply my dissertation research, which centred around the role of the SMART Board as a display of student knowledge, and an entry point for knowledge building discourse. Working closely with SMART product developers, I will articulate and study new pedagogical patterns that leverage Smart technologies to help make collaboration and inquiry more accessible to teachers. The pedagogical designs that we study will employ new products from SMART including multi-touch tables and distributed “canvas” representations

Vancity Community Foundation – Living Wage and Food Insecurity Intern

Since 2006, Living Wage for Families has been on a dedicated mission to combat working poverty in British Columbia, even in a province known for its substantial wealth. This journey began with the calculation of the living wage, representing the income necessary for full-time workers to meet basic needs and escape poverty. Over the years, we have expanded our efforts to include raising awareness, advocating for change, and certifying Living Wage Employers. Our determination has led to the accreditation of numerous employers committed to ensuring both direct and contracted staff receive a living wage. However, due to the rising costs of living, stagnant wages, and employment instability, many low-wage workers continue to experience working poverty. Recognizing the need for a solution, Living Wage for Families is broadening its scope to address all factors influencing the achievement of a living wage. The internship opportunity will significantly contribute to policy development in the critical areas of food insecurity and affordability. The intern will lead an extensive research project, collaborating with esteemed organizations to collect evidence, conduct analysis, and propose necessary changes. This will involve close cooperation with key stakeholders and community partners, ultimately producing vital policy development and food insecurity research reports, collaborative proposals, and impactful data.

Retro Active Data Analysis (informing clinical care)

The proposed project will determine how the Opto-mization Neuro-Visual assessment captures improvements in a patient’s vision over time and in response to treatment. To accomplish this, the Neuro-Visual assessment database will be organized into a library with data from all patients who completed the assessment, every time they completed the assessment, with a custom MATLAB or Python repository. Next, repeated-measures analyses, including multilevel growth curve tests, will be applied to examine longitudinal trends in optometric data. Assessment data is expected to be sensitive to time after treatment, lending quantitative evidence to patient testimonials. Once general trends in the dataset are understood, a data-driven approach will be used to further investigate areas of interest, such as demographics, and treatment modalities. By analyzing the Neuro-Visual assessment database, we will have an improved understanding of how Neuro-Optometric Rehabilitation helps patients, guiding further implementation of these tools.
