About

This blog began as reflections on my doctoral research; however, it has morphed into also providing information on emerging technology, online learning, and faculty development issues. My current research interests involve learning theories (specifically constructivism and adult learning theory), game-based learning, mobile learning, “best practices” in online learning, and Web 2.0 tools.

Gayla S. Keesee

Augusta, GA, United States

I have over 20 years experience teaching face-to-face, web-enhanced, and online courses and providing support for students and faculty. I recently earned my PhD in Educational Technology in Higher Education through Walden University. My dissertation title was Perceived Attributes and Organizational Support Influencing Course Management System Adopter Status in Historically Black Colleges and Universities. I also have a M.Ed. in Secondary Education/English concentration. 

I am currently an Instructional Design Consultant. My focus is on assisting faculty and departments in addressing complex teaching and learning issues in relation to the development, implementation, and assessment of pedagogically-based courses and digital resources through individual consultations, tutorials, workshops, and Web 2.0 tools. My research interests involve learning theories (specifically constructivism, connectivism, and adult learning theory), game-based learning, mobile learning, “best practices” in online learning, communities of practice, and Web 2.0 tools. My electronic portfolio highlights my professional experience and provides links to supporting artifacts.
