Research and Professional Experience
Currently I'm Lecturer of Educational Technologies aplied to classrooms and Educational Technology in the Faculty of Education at the University of Murcia.
I'm also researcher in the Educational Technology Research Group GITE where I has actively collaborated during a great part of my undergraduate studies (since 2002) and I started working with them immediately after my graduation.
In this time, I have collaborated and participated on diverse research national and international projects, related with application of pedagogical principles to the development of the education processes through Internet, and the educational and organizational implications of the e-learning in our traditional educational institutions.
Some of these projects (my degree thesis too) consist on assessments of the experiences in regulated e-learning in the first and second stage of the Education at the universitary level: design of assessment, process, educational methodology, teachers roll, learners, participation, interaction, etc.
In others projects, I have designed, made and implemented, different courses and on-line didactic material, as well as given professional advise to others teachers regarding the didactic material design and implementation.
In 2005 I have worked for the vocational and professional assessment office at my University (COIE Centro de Orientación e Información para el Empleo de la Universidad de Murcia), and I have designed and made a tutorial suite for teaching to look for recently graduates’ first job.
I spent four months in Milton Keynes (from March until June of 2006) working in the Knowledge Media Institute of the Open University. I collaborated with Dr. Peter Scott and his FlashMeeting development team, Kevin Quick and Jon Linney, developing a pedagogic study.
I spent as well some time in different stays to research in South America with different projects related to education in higher education and technology enhanced learning at different levels. Specially related to teachers and pedagogic skills to use technologies in teaching and learning.
I was from october 2008 to january 2009 in the CENT -Centre for Education and New Technologies- at the University Jaume I in Castellon (Spain). I was there learning many things about teacher's training, pedagogic support for technology enhanced learning and strategies to improve use of technologies in higher education.
During all this period I have presented and published some documents in national and international conferences, meetings and jornals
