My Publications


** I am a bit behind updating anything about publications to this web, pls see latest in the Google scholar, under versions, I always update a preprint ResearchGate or archive in Open Science Foundations (OSF) platform 
 [update] ​19-08-2021
A well respected researcher, a philosopher, one of the prominent figure behind the connectivisit MOOCs (persoanlly I would call him, father of MOOCs) has a review post in his web about my last MOOC publication.
​During my Ph.D. I envisioned a semi strucutred MOOC -- not fully connectivist- which together Stehen and George introduced, or not fully regular xMOOC .
My work has been predominantly bringing communities to MOOCs and articulating a structured framework to enahnce effectiveness. I am glad that Prof. Stephen had a peek to the papers and distingushes the key differences - yet one more thing to it - Although I dont have much fund to continue the same line of work, the framework for social presence provided really promising impactful results, I am glad I could built the social system PeerCollab centered upon the framework, and many students feedback were awesome to learn with a community.
