Cathy Roy
Cathy Roy has been working at Dawson for 6 happy years in the Physiotherapy Technology Department since she transitioned from her work as a clinician. Her quest to become a better teacher led her to complete a Graduate Certificate in College Teaching with Performa at the University of Sherbrooke. She did a prior fellowship in the Universal Design for Learning Community of Practice in 2019, and she enjoyed it so much, she decided to apply for a DALC fellowship the following year. Her interests lie in case study methodology, gamification, and effective use of technology in the classroom, and her project with the DALC has married these two. Her research on serious games and branching scenarios has led to potential new avenues and applications for using online methods to diversify online learning including research into and ongoing work to bring a new platform called Open Labyrinth to Dawson. She will put this expertise to good use in the next couple of years through a SALTISE fellowship, participation in the Physiotherapy Program revision, as well as the Interprofessional Education project at Dawson College.
