Hello!
My name is Anjali Gali, and I am a researcher, computer science educator and artist.
I learn about interfaces that improve accessibility in Mixed Reality Technology and their ability to improve mental health and education
I aim to incorporate these interfaces in educational systems, to empower students with the resources to accomplish their goals and bring their ideas to life.
A selection of Computer Science projects and HCI Research Projects that I was involved in as an Undergraduate or Graduate-level researcher at the University of Wisconsin - Madison or at Iowa State University respectively. I used Unity, Unreal Engine, Figma, microcontrollers, etc.
Games that I developed in classes or as personal projects using Unity, OpenXR, and Meta Quest tools. These games are intended to be educational in nature, and focus on teaching programming or Computer Science fundamentals.
Projects in which I developed wireframes and icon designs for User Interfaces and optimizing User Experience using tools such as Figma. Much of my knowledge in these areas is based on my experience in my Master's Degree in Human-Computer Interaction.
As a curriculum developer, I have a deep understanding of motivational strategies that make learning engaging, meaningful, and accessible. I'm well-versed in CSTA-K12 Standards, ensuring that computer science education is structured to support student growth at every level. I’m passionate about diversity, equity, and inclusion, creating curriculum that empowers all learners, particularly neurodivergent students and those from historically underrepresented backgrounds in computing.
