Summer Research
This summer my primary focus will be on the DIVE - Dancing in Virtual Environments: Exploring Embodied Learning in Support of Computational Thinking project. Also known as the Dancing ALICE project. Also, I will be working with Dr. Joerg on Perception of Virtual Characters in Games. With this side project, I will be getting familiar with the experiment and facilitate the experiment by running participants to collect data.
