Short Bio
Born in Portugal in 1979, he graduated in Communication Design at the University of Lisbon (2003), has a master’s degree in Communication Sciences at the New University of Lisbon (UNL, 2008), and has a PhD Digital Media: Audiovisuals and Interactive Media in an international Doctoral Program with the University of Texas and UNL (2014).
He is an Assistant Professor at the Doctoral School of the University of Saint Joseph, Macao, China.
He was a professor at Beira Interior University (2014-2020), Lusíada University (2015-2022), and IADE—European University (2020-2024), where he coordinated the Graduation Course in Visual Design and the Master’s in Communication and Multimedia both in open distance learning modality. He collaborated as a Visiting Academic at the University of Saint Joseph, teaching several modules in the School of Education and the Faculty of Arts and Humanities (2017-2024).
He designed a graduation program in Visual Design at IADE (Licenciatura em Design Visual), conceived to run in open distance learning mode and collaborated on several others. He successfully supervised 14 master's candidates.
He participated in several projects related to digital technologies, multimedia, and audiovisuals in education, adding up to over 20 years of experience in e-learning. The most recent projects he collaborated on were the educational project to support learning mathematics using Khan Academy (2019 to 2021) and the digital literacy project PICCLE, developed with Plano Nacional de Leitura (Reading National Plan, 2021).
His research interests are broad in media production, but he is particularly interested in the educational uses of social media, multimedia, interactive media and audiovisuals in education.
