Graduate Fellow
Nora Perry (she/her) is a third year PhD student and sessional lecturer in the Language and Literacy Education Department at the University of British Columbia. She also holds an MA from the same department in which her thesis centred on gender roles and video games for young children. She has collaborated on seven video game education studies using Nintendo switches, and presented findings from these internationally. Prior to her studies, she was a public school teacher in Sooke, BC. Acting as a rural educator informs her interest in video game education, specifically with remote communities. As a self-proclaimed board game nerd, her interest in games is both professional and personal and she has been a rampant dungeon master and player of Dungeons and Dragons (among other play systems) for the past ten years.
