Imagine a retired math professor half-blinded by glaucoma teaching a young girl the complex principles of solid geometry.
He encourages her to look beyond the abstract formulae and visualize the shapes in her mind’s eye. He helps her to decipher cubes, cones, and spheres—shapes that are just blurred outlines for him—from the clutter of geometric objects that crowd our world. Amazed, the student wonders how he stimulates her visual-thinking skills when he can barely see.
It was a memorable teaching-learning experience, and it has stayed with me to this day. Professor Gai was a brilliant teacher who transformed the lives of his pupils with his engaging teaching methods. In the same way, I aspire to create learning environments that will transform the lives of adults.
As an instructional designer, I am excited by the potential of information technology (IT) to create real-world, collaborative learning environments and aim to explore the evolving
role of IT in enabling learning.
