    Biography

    Daniel Castañeda earned his doctorate in technology education from West Virginia University in 2007. His primary research interests include the effects of instruction involving technology on second-language learning as well as discourse analysis of students’ use of tense and aspect (e.g., Spanish preterite and imperfect) and temporal words and expressions (e.g., adverbials) in written narratives.  His research interests also include factors that can be identified in data pertaining to student and faculty satisfaction in online learning environments.
