Nancy Cheng
Associate Professor, University of Oregon

I study how tools and methods shape design thinking. I believe in building sustainable communities both online and on the planet. I've used the Web to enhance learning since working on Virtual Design Studios at the University of Hong Kong. You can see how I use wikis and websites in design communication and architectural studios below and on my teaching page that links to older material.
I am working with interdisciplinary colleagues to understand how ePortfolios can be used to guide and assess learning. Students can create work-in-progress record, receiving formative feedback. They can reflect on how the work addresses learning goals and present edited views of the work for professional development and university outreach.
