About

My professional key interests include development of education in order to meet the challenges posed by the evolving post-information society and improving accessibility of high-quality education and teacher education. I am highly experienced in e-learning as I've been active in the field since 2000. I also have strong background of international cooperation and project management. I teach e-pedagogy and social media pedagogical solutions to vocational teacher students and have given staff training in this field both at Tampere University of Applied Sciences and universities in different parts of the world.

I have written several articles and conference papers on using social media for teacher training. Currently I am also busy with my PhD work in which I study the impact different learning environments in higher education have on the acquisition of 21st century skills, such as creative thinking, problem-solving skills or teamwork skills among others.
