Overview

Working as a graduate research assistant has allowed me to gain experience in preparation of collected data for analysis and system development. coursework served as another avenue to gain experience with statistical analysis and system design. I also participated in research projects with other graduate students, gaining valuable research design and analysis experience.

My Learning Assistant: Instructional Support in a Video Game. 2011 Tech Trends Submission Manuscript

Graber, G., Al Ghenaimi, S., Kilburn, E., (2011). My Learning Assistant: Instructional Support in a Video Game. (Under review: submitted to Tech Trends, Sept. 2011)

We conducted a pilot usability study of the educational game, Immune Attack, for our project work in the SISLT Human Computer Interaction course in the spring 2009. I rewrote result of that effort to focus on preparation for publication. I conducted a more thorough literature review and analysis of the original data, and submitted the paper to the AECT publication, Tech Trends.
