From K-12 to graduate school education, innovations in technology in recent years have been transforming classrooms and other learning spaces at a swift pace. Dr. Shaundra B. Daily is an educational technologist whose interdisciplinary training enables her to blend cutting-edge science and engineering with sophisticated pedagogical ideas to design learning technologies.
An assistant professor in the Human-Centered Computing Division in the School of Computing at Clemson University, Daily is in her second year as a faculty member, where she balances an ambitious research portfolio with her teaching. The division is chaired by Dr. Juan Gilbert, an award-winning scholar who is credited with mentoring more African-Americans through computer science Ph.D. programs than anyone.
“Her research [is] just a great fit” for the division, Gilbert says.
A graduate of the celebrated Media Laboratory Ph.D. program at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Daily honed her skills and understanding of educational technology in a program that’s known for its emphasis on interdisciplinary approaches to research and technology development. “The Media Lab has a long history of designing technologies for teaching and learning,” she says.
