X. Christine Wang (LAI assistant professor) received the Division C Jan Hawkins Award for Early
Career Contributions to Humanistic Research and Scholarship in Learning Technologies at the
2007 annual meeting of the American Educational Research Association in Chicago. The award
recognizes scholars who are engaged in research, combined with practice and advocacy, that explores
and demonstrates new ways to think about technologies in contexts of learning and education, and
uses innovative research techniques to understand the impact of these technologies. Wang’s research
focuses on integrating technology into young children’s classrooms, including the use of video
ethnography. Wang was also quoted in the August 20, 2007 Buffalo News article “A Need to Bridge
the ‘Digital Divide’ in Western New York”: “Those who grew up in the wireless, high-tech world are
known as digital natives. The rest are digital immigrants, and they find it harder to adapt. The next
step is building that basic technology literacy into fluency. The concern now has shifted from access
to the quality of the usage. For example, instructors need the proper training so that they can teach
students how to use cutting-edge technology in innovative ways.”
