Ridwan Whitehead obtained his Bachelor of Arts in English Language Teaching from Middle East Technical University in Ankara, Turkey. To enhance his understanding of the role of technology in learning, I completed a Master of Arts in Learning, Education, and Technology at the University of Oulu in Oulu, Finland, focusing on K-12 teacher collaborative learning beliefs and their acceptance of LMS technology. Currently, he is working as a doctoral researcher at the Learning & Educational Technology (LET) Research Lab, furthering his understanding in socially shared regulation of learning, specifically exploring how non-verbal behaviors, such as gaze, gestures, and posture can inform us on different modes of regulation of learning.
