OVAL Interactive Video Player
OVAL Interactive Video Player is a robust, feature-rich video player that takes user engagement to the next level. Designed with educators, and researchers in mind, OVAL offers a range of interactive options to facilitate active learning and data-driven insights. It allows seamless embedding into Learning Management Systems (LMS) via LTI and utilises YouTube as the video source.
My involvement with the OVAL Interactive Video Player is that I took over the coordination of the software development since March 2023.

PhD candidate at the University of South Australia
I am a PhD candidate at the University of South Australia’s Centre for Change and Complexity in Learning. Prior to my doctoral studies, I worked as a Research Associate and Systems Administrator supporting university lecturers with educational technology in Germany. My doctoral research explores the intersection of self-regulated learning and mind wandering during video-based learning, specifically examining how learners adapt their learning processes after recognizing mind wandering episodes. This research aims to develop evidence-based recommendations for effective responses to mind wandering during learning. Following my PhD, I plan to expand my research beyond video-based contexts to investigate the conditions under which self-regulated learners engage in task-level, ad-hoc adaptation of their learning processes.
