Biography
My name is Santiago Ojeda-Ramirez, and I am from Bogotá, Colombia. I want to research how to integrate Computing Education into Social Sciences, arts, and Humanities classrooms. I hold a bachelor's in Biomedical Engineering, minors in Biology and Literature, and a Master's Degree in Digital Humanities from Universidad de Los Andes. My passion for educational research comes from my experience as an elementary, Middle and High School teacher in Bogotá, and from working as a pedagogical coordinator in the Clubes de Ciencia project, which seeks to awaken interest in science and technology in middle and high school students across Colombia. My previous research has addressed the design of a Computational Thinking course for Arts and Humanities' Students in higher education. I have also explored the beliefs about teaching and teaching behaviors of Biology Graduate Teaching Assistants. I will work with Professor Mark Warschauer in Elementary Computing for All as I aim to understand the relationship between computing education and second language acquisition.
