I am a Tenured Teaching Personnel (Greek Language) at the Language Centre of Cyprus University of Technology (CUT), Coordinator of the Learning Development Network (LDN) of CUT and co-director of  the Cyprus Interaction Lab of the Department of Multimedia and Graphic Arts of CUT. I  hold a BA in Classical Studies from the University of Cyprus, an MA in Pedagogical Sciences from the same University and a PhD from CUT. In my PhD dissertation I focused on the potential of social technologies as instructional tools that support social construction of an artifact by a group of language learners. My work is situated at the intersection of  technologies, language learning and social change.
