Brenda M. Stoesz
is the Research Lead – Science of Teaching and Learning at the Centre for the Advancement of Teaching and Learning at the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. Brenda began her teaching journey in 2000, teaching high school general science and biology before moving on to teaching human anatomy and physiology at Assiniboine College’s Licensed Practical Nursing program. Years later, during her graduate studies in psychology, her interest in teaching led to numerous teaching assistant, laboratory, and sessional instructor positions. As a researcher, Brenda’s interests vary widely from academic integrity policy analysis to effectiveness of educational interventions, particularly how technologies (e.g., virtual reality, generative artificial intelligence) can be used to promote academic integrity, prevent academic misconduct, and enhance teaching and learning.
