Personal profile

Research Interests

Patricia Lyk, PhD, is a postdoctoral researcher at the Game Development and Learning Technologies Unit at the Maersk McKinney-Moeller Institute, University of Southern Denmark (SDU). Specializing in the field of Learning and Experience Technology, Patricia brings a robust background in civil engineering to her academic pursuits. Holding a master's degree in the same field, she further solidified her expertise by earning a PhD in Mixed Reality and Learning.

During her doctoral studies, she explored innovative ways to utilize 360-degree videos in a more Virtual Reality (VR)-like manner, providing users with a more interactive and explorative learning experience. Her research particularly emphasizes the application of technology for constructivist learning, challenging the traditional role of passive observation in 360-degree videos.

Committed to advancing both research and education, Patricia actively engages in teaching development of VR and AR, as well as Learning Technology. Over the past 5 years, she has been teaching the courses “Virtual and Augmented Reality 1” and “Virtual Reality 2”.

Patricia's research interests center around the intersection of technology and learning, with a focus on leveraging Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) for educational purposes—an area she has been dedicated to since the release of the first Oculus development headset over 9 years ago.
