About
I am currently serving as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Education at NIT Calicut, Kerala, India.
I have been recognised among the World’s Top 2% Scientist by Stanford University and Elsevier.
I have maintained a sustained scholarly engagement with critical questions at the intersection of pedagogy, sustainability, technology, ethics, innovation, and social change.
My academic contributions include more than 75 Scopus-indexed publications and over 100 presentations delivered at national and international academic forums.
My work has appeared in reputed research publication platforms including Elsevier, Springer, Taylor & Francis, CRC Press, Routledge, Atlantis Press, Springer Nature, Palgrave Macmillan, and IEEE.
I hold a Ph.D. from IIT Kharagpur, where my research engaged with foundational concerns in educational policy, curriculum design, educational technology, philosophy of education, innovation in education, educational administration, governance, and pedagogical transformation.
My academic research is grounded in a transdisciplinary orientation that draws from educational sciences, digital pedagogy, curriculum theory, learning analytics, sustainability education, instructional design, artificial intelligence, ethics of technology, and socio-technical studies.
My scholarship strives to interrogate and expand the boundaries of educational thought by examining the epistemological, ethical, and social dimensions of digital and post-digital pedagogies.
My work critically engages with the changing nature of knowledge production, learner agency, pedagogical mediation, and institutional transformation in technologically saturated educational environments.
I am particularly invested in advancing inclusive digital learning, gamified instructional strategies, AI-mediated educational ecosystems, and ethically governed technology integration in education.
My research agenda is animated by the pursuit of design-oriented, ethically attuned, and contextually responsive frameworks that can support meaningful educational reform.
Through my work, I seek to contribute to the development of pedagogical models that are not only technologically innovative but also socially just, epistemically inclusive, developmentally sensitive, and aligned with the broader goals of sustainable and human-centred education.
