Sini Davies
PhD, postdoctoral researcher, University of Helsinki, Faculty of Educational Sciences
My research interests are centred around all things epistemic, more precisely, knowledge creation and maker-centred learning with, through, around, and sometimes despite novel digital technologies. I also actively develop qualitative analysis methods for video data.
I’m currently working as a researcher in Generation AI research project, funded by the Strategic Research Council of the Academy of Finland.
