Hi! I’m Melissa.
I’m an educator & designer doing my post graduate studies at UBC’s Master’s of Ed.Tech program. I live a pretty slow life out in the Japanese countryside with a marshmallow aesthetics Shiba Inu named Wolf. My work mainly entails EFL learning in digital spaces, though I also dabble in random hobbies.
Case Study
A pilot program to build research skills, digital fluency, and academic presentation confidence with Japanese Grade 1 & 2 SHS students.
Adapting commonsense.org’s digital literacy curriculum.
Experiments and creations in Anthropic’s Claude to test ideas and build tools for the explicit use of EFL learning.
Artifacts
Vibe coding with Claude for educational fun.
