Absolutely thrilled to share that yesterday I passed my PhD viva @oiioxford @UniofOxford. In my thesis, I explored the affordances of self-tracking practices for teenagers’ social and psychological wellbeing. This journey has been wonderful in so many (often unexpected!) ways. – at Oxford, England

I am looking for UK teens to tell me what they think about health + fitness tracking (even if they've never done it before!) for my PhD at @oiioxford. Teens will receive a £10 Amazon voucher for taking part in a short online interview. For more info see: tinyurl.com/zuy5rtym

Some interesting research (by my daughter) on teenagers’ use of technology to self-track health and fitness data. Tip of the iceberg here - much more learning to be had in this space. – at Richmond, London
What does it mean to track a teenage body with self-tracking tools designed for adults? The answer: It's complicated.
Absolutely delighted to share my new paper with the wonderful @ginasue published in New Media & Society. See 🧵 for more:
