Research
During my time at McMaster University, as a research assistant at the W Booth School of Engineering Practice and Technology, I worked on inclusive learning through equity-based design approaches in engineering education research. I was also a graduate TA in Design Thinking courses for four terms.
Research: Inclusive learning through equity-driven approaches to design
The research aimed to explore ways in which Design Thinking (DT) can provide students with a more inclusive environment in the Faculty of Engineering by supporting them in learning equity-driven approaches to design.
