Learning and becoming a medical educationalist
|
|
Carnaval, samba, soccer, Rio de Janeiro. These are the words most people remember when talking about Brazil. But the Brazilian woman that arrived in Maastricht on May 2017 was quite different. I live in São Paulo with my husband and two kids, I do not know how to dance, and do not play soccer (or even enjoy it).

Having been a professor teaching instructional design in the US and a researcher studying Problem-based Learning (PBL) for almost 20 years, Maastricht University is a place that I have always wanted to visit. A casual conversation at a conference last spring led me to apply to and receive the SHE Research Visits scholarship.
