My name is Aleata Hubbard Cheuoua and I’m currently a Senior Research Scientist in the Learning & Technology group at WestEd. Trained as a learning scientist, I conduct qualitative and mixed methods studies that help drive program strategy and product design for K-12 districts, universities, and nonprofits. Some of my recent projects have focused on professional learning for secondary teachers new to computing, informal tech entrepreneurship for high schoolers, and college-level introductory computing programs.
I also have a passion for language and understanding how we communicate with each other. Over the years I’ve studied French, Spanish, and German. In my spare time, I blog about navigating languages across cultures and listen to some of my favorite podcasts on language (e.g., A Way With Words and La Puce à l’oreille).
