My name is Ulf Hedestig and have been working at the
department since 1988.Currently I am Director of undergraduate education
and a teacher in courses connected to the field of HCI and CSCW/CSCL.
My research interest is within ICT and learning, especially with a
focus on Computer Support for Collaborative Learning. During the recent
years I have been particpating in research projects in ICT and learning,
that mainly has been focused on mobile devices and personal technologies.
Another research topic has been development of learning centres and
study centres for distance learning.
