Yen-Ling Lee
My K-12 teaching experience led me to study how teachers can use technology to assist students in information management and knowledge representation and building. I focus on digital literacies, cognitive neuropsychology, and learning and instructional theories for designing instruction 
and curriculums that promote effective teaching and learning. Currently, I am a teaching assistant in the Teacher Education Program and instructing a course, titled “Current Issues of Technology in the Classrooms,” for pre-service teachers. My research projects involve virtual reality applications in education. My most recent publication is:
Winn, W.D., Stahr, F., Sarason, C., Fruland, R., Oppenheimer, P. and Lee, Y-L. (2006). Learning oceanography from a computer simulation compared with direct experience at sea. Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 43(1), 25-42.

I am looking at how people learn to socialize and cooperate in a community while playing computer and video games. Currently, I'm doing an ethnographic study of a group of players in World of Warcraft with an eye on how they learn to coordinate their efforts and negotiate their roles in the group. Previously, I created educational, web-based mini-games and was the webmaster for the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry. Jennifer Stone is my advisor.
