Short Biography
Chien-Sing, an IEEE Senior Member, is a firm believer of interdisciplinary research, though she respects each discipline for its uniqueness and am awed by how each enriches and complements the other. Her Fulbright Fellowship at Lehigh University's Lehigh Valley STEM lab with Prof. Glenn David Blank, and at Georgia Tech's Learning-by-Design lab with Prof. Janet Kolodner, and Prof. Ashok K. Goel's Design Intelligence Lab in 2008/2009 provided a richer, broader and deeper view of computing, information systems, and Artificial Intelligence compared to her CogMoLab research in Multimedia University (MMU). This invaluable Fellowship, the support of her IEEE mentors far and wide and locally in Malaysia and her Multimedia University team, privileged her to be awarded the 2009 Ten Outstanding Young Malaysian (Science and Technology Development) by the Junior Chamber International (M). Following from this, is a 2-year (2011-2013) research venture as a Faculty at the Graduate Institute of Networked Learning Technologies, National Central University, Taiwan on the teaching of Mathematics to students in grades 1-3, with Prof. Tak-Wai Chan. Prof. Thanks to NCU and ex-colleagues. The next 2 -year (2013-2015) adventure in the Faculty of Creative Industries, Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman (UTAR), provided invaluable insights into another side of design-based research. Together with Dr. K. Daniel Wong, she integrated the Creative industries with lessons learnt from prior studies in MMU and Georgia Tech on computing/IT, Multimedia Systems, Artificial Intelligence and the Learning Sciences/adapted Learning-by-Design. She has since returned to computing and information systems. An educator who loves design, she stands on the shoulders of giants. Special thanks to her mentors, both international and local when she was studying at Universiti Putra Malaysia (1987-1993), Universiti Malaya (1996-1999) and during her tenure in MMU (1997-2011) and UTAR (2013-2015).
