Additional Information

My CRIS profile

I'm a faculty member at the Open University of Israel, Department of Education & Psychology I am the founder and former Head of the Research Center of Innovation in Learning Technologies (https://www-e.openu.ac.il/innovation/).  Until lately I was the  Head of  the M.A. program in Technology & Learning Systems at the OUI.
My academic and professional background is diverse: B.A in Archeology, M.Sc. in Geology and PhD in Earth & Environmental Sciences. For about a decade, I was the Head of the Instructional Design Program in the Tel Hai Academic College, and a senior researcher in the Geological Survey of Israel.
My major research and publications focus cognitive aspects of working with digital technologies, digital literacy, digital reading, academic dishonesty, digital games, design principles of computer-based learning environments, and technology integration in educational systems. I developed and studied empirically, the well-accepted holistic model of digital literacy, which describes today's literacy of learners through six thinking skills. Accordingly, much of my current research is devoted to tracking changes through time in the proficiency of learners in digital literacy skills, as well as developing strategies to impart literacy skills. Another line of my research deals with reading from digital displays and with the difference between print and digital reading. In recent years, I'm engaged in a wide range of studies on unethical learners' behaviors (academic dishonesty), with special emphasis on digital dishonesty.
In geology, my research focuses on paleontology, chronostratigraphy and pleoenvironmental reconstructions. In this capacity, I created a palynostratigraphic framework for the Permian-Triassic eras in the subsurface of Israel, which has become a pivotal basis for age-determination in oil drillings. I've studied the mass-extinction phenomenon at the Permian-Triassic boundary and discovered the Fungal Event, which is considered today as the best marker for the P-Tr boundary. My empirical studies on the Fungal Event contributed to our understanding of this unique catastrophic event and of the central role of volcanic-triggered acid rain in this mass extinction. In another line of studies, I developed a model that allowed reconstruction of Oxygen and photosynthetic levels in ancient oceans, based on a quantitative analysis of calcareous nannofossils and dinoflagellate cyst assemblages.  
I have more than 15 years' experience in developing technology-based instructional solutions for educational systems in Israel and the USA. In this capacity, I was a senior scientist in a computer company, which developed learning environments for schools. I was involved in the design of hundreds of simulations, microworlds, digital games, data-bases, tutorials and large-scale curriculum integration projects.
