Education projects
- Ethical Dissonance Pedagogy: Designed and piloted a teaching approach that uses productive cognitive friction, through deliberate encounter with what resists the student's settled intuitions, to deepen ethical reasoning and critical reflection. The approach draws on Levinasian ethics and sits at the pedagogical core of the Ethics, Privacy and Security course.
- Metacognitive Framing: Developed classroom routines that ask students to map and evaluate their own thinking as they engage with counter-intuitive concepts, treating the act of noticing one's own reasoning as a teachable skill in its own right.
