Dr Genaro Vilanova Miranda De Oliveira MA, PhD

Lecturer

Institute of Education

Olá, Hola, Kia Ora, Hello,

I joined the Institute of Education as a Lecturer in Secondary Education in August 2018.

My career in education began as a history teacher in Brazil, where I had experience working in the public, private and NGO sectors as a school teacher, educational consultant and academic.

Prior to my current role at Massey, I worked as a social studies and Spanish teacher at Diocesan School for Girls (Auckland), did a postdoc in digital history at the University of Basel (Switzerland), lectured on history and education at the Fiji National University (FNU - Fiji Islands), taught media history at College of Sciences and Technology (FTC - Brazil) and digital inclusion at the NGO Cipó (Brazil).

My fields of research are: teaching and learning history, art history, digital history, historiography, and Latin American history.

I  welcome enquiries from prospective MA & PhD students interested in the research fields outlined above.

Saudações, saludos, ngā mihi, best, Genaro
