Thomas is a doctoral researcher in the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions funded doctoral network INSIDE:INSIGHT, which aims to elevate Technology-Enhanced Learning (TEL) for healthcare delivery, digital literacy, enhancing inclusivity and equal opportunities in medical and healthcare education. He is affiliated with two research groups at the University of Oulu: the Learning and Educational Technology Research Lab in the Faculty of Education and Psychology, and the Healthcare Education and Competence Lab in the Faculty of Medicine.
Obtaining his RMSc in Educational Sciences: Learning in Interaction at Utrecht University, his research interests revolve around the use of virtual reality (VR) in education to support learning.
In his doctoral research, he is currently investigating self-regulated learning (SRL), co-regulated learning (CoRL) and socially shared regulation of learning (SSRL) in VR-based healthcare simulations. His research examines how regulation processes unfold and how they can be supported in complex, collaborative learning environments, integrating multimodal data and immersive technologies.
