About

I'm a full-time lecturer at Kyushu Sangyo University in Fukuoka, Japan. I hold a B.A. in Trumpet Performance from Virginia Tech, an M.Ed. in Education from American College of Education, and a Masters in Psychology from Macquarie University. Throughout my teaching career, I have taught English and Trumpet in America, Canada, Israel, Australia, and Japan. I'm a firm believer that the skills developed in studying the language of music can be applied to language acquisition. My current research interests are the effects of anxiety on performance and cognition.

Teacher and Professional Development Turning the Lost in Citations Podcast Into a Research Opportunity more

Sun, Nov 14, 11:25-11:50 Asia/Tokyo

This presentation introduces the podcast project called Lost in Citations. With each episode centred on an academic publication, we invited scholars from a wide variety of fields to discuss their research in a more in-depth way and learn more about their background. We cover our subsequent text-mining activities, including an example of thematic similarities that emerged within a series of our research-based interviews with academics in connected fields.
