My name is Sonsoles and I come from Vigo (Spain). I obtained a PhD in Telematics Systems Engineering from Universidad Politécnica de Madrid. I am currently a Senior Researcher at University of Eastern Finland. My main research areas are game-based learning in engineering and computer science education, learning analytics, and data engineering, among others. I have developed several open-source software projects related to educational technology and big data analysis. I am skilled in quantitative methods that include machine learning, process and sequence mining, network analysis, complex event processing, and data visualization.
