Ubiquitous Computing, Postdoctoral
Scholar
Dr. Sherry Hsi
 Sherry Hsi received her degrees
in both engineering and science education from the University of
California at Berkeley. Her research centers around the design of
social contexts for learning mediated by technology. She has
addressed this research in two areas. In one area, she has
investigated the design of electronic discussion to support
scientific discourse and equity in learning. In a second area, she
has been designing and studying the uses of distance learning and
netcourses to support the development of exemplary teacher
practices. She is particularly interested in how networked
technologies, including mobile computers, can be used to facilitate
productive social exchanges that lead to deeper inquiry,
reflection, and assessment. She recently co-authored the book
Computers, Teachers, Peers. Until recently, Dr. Hsi served
as a postdoctoral scholar with CILT's Ubiquitous Computing theme
team, exploring social learning contexts mediated by low-cost,
pocket-sized technologies.
