Education first. Technology with purpose.

Professional background

From classroom needs to learning solutions.

My approach to educational technology grew from practical challenges in teaching and curriculum planning: how to keep learning coherent, make resources easier to use and give young learners meaningful opportunities to practise.

My work includes curriculum mapping, resource development, assessment design, collaborative teaching, interactive learning development and educational technology prototyping. The projects in this portfolio respond to those genuine teaching and learning needs.

Learning design philosophy

Six principles guide the work.

A practical framework for making learning experiences useful, accessible and grounded in evidence.

01

Begin with learning objectives

Define the intended learning before selecting activities or technology.

02

Understand users and context

Consider the needs, constraints and confidence of learners and educators.

03

Choose technology for educational value

Use tools because they improve the experience—not because they are novel.

04

Design for usability and accessibility

Remove avoidable barriers so the learning remains central.

05

Evaluate learning, not engagement alone

Enthusiasm matters, but evidence of understanding matters more.

06

Improve through evidence and feedback

Treat design as an iterative process rather than a one-off deliverable.

Professional development

A connected progression.

Classroom teaching developed into curriculum design, postgraduate educational research, interactive learning development and educational technology prototyping.

I define the educational problem, learning purpose and design direction, then use tools such as OpenAI Codex to support technical implementation and iteration.

Research-informed practice

Studying the conditions behind meaningful technology use.

My MA dissertation examined how international school teachers in Thailand integrate digital technology into curriculum planning to support active learning. Effective integration depends on alignment between technology, pedagogy, learning objectives and context.
