Research
In collaboration with colleagues at The University of Melbourne, I am currently investigating how people use a variety of interactive technologies (video games, community networks, mobile phones, etc.) for convivial and sociable purposes in a variety of situations (intimate strong-tie relationships, local neighborhoods, work-based occupational communities, online computer games).
Teaching
My teaching is currently focused on professional development for information systems students as well as the social, legal and ethical issues and dilemmas surrounding information and communication technologies in contemporary society. I am also involved in teaching research methods.
Supervision
I am interested in supervising PhD research in any of the areas outlined on my Research page. I am particularly interested in supervising PhD research on the social dynamics of virtual worlds. See my Supervisions page for some specific projects.
