Lecturer

Department of Computer Science

Obtained a Bachelor of Science degree with a First Class from the Open University of Sri Lanka. Offered Pure Mathematics, Applied Mathematics and Physics. Later read for a Master of Philosophy (MPhil) in Artificial Intelligence (AI) at the Open University of Sri Lanka. For the post graduate degree a computer based learning system for Mathematics was developed. For the development of the system, expert systems in (AI) and learning theories of education were used. At present involved in a research proposal titled “Evidence based approach to self-regulation for enhanced learning in open and online settings
