Profile
Dr. Mike Carbonaro is a Professor in the Faculty of Education. His research intersects several areas: curriculum design, digital games, blended delivery, robotics, computational modeling, computational thinking, health sciences interprofessional education, and, Aboriginal Education (teaching at Blue Quills First Nations College). Prior to his appointment, he spent four years in industry developing simulation-based training systems for the Canadian military. In 2001 he introduced the first LEGO Robotic technology Education course in Canada. Since 2004 he has collaborated with colleagues in Computing Science and the Health Sciences on various educational technology research projects. He chaired the Digital Learning Pilots:R&D committee overseeing the creation of innovative forms of digital learning. He from 2013-2018 was Special Advisor to the Provost on Digital Learning, and Co-Chair (with Dr. Sarah Forgie, Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry) of the Provost’s Digital Learning Committee (PDLC). Currently he is coordinator of the Educational Technology graduate program, and during the past two years, along with Dr. Cathy Adams and colleagues in Computing Science has worked with Alberta Education to revise the K-12 curriculum to include the teaching of computational thinking (coding).
