Dr Chris Zomer

I currently work as a Research Assistant for the ARC Centre of Excellence for the Digital Child. My research interests include the datafication of learning, gamified learning platforms and the use of technology in education more broadly. My work mostly draws on poststructuralist ideas of discourse and social constructivist notions of agency.

I recenlty finished my PhD-project in which I investigated how gamified learning applications reshape ideas, understandings and enactments of student engagement in a private girl school with an 'academic' student population. 

I combine my research activities with my work as a relief teacher in a French immersion school.
