In 2020, she graduated with the MBA in Educational Leadership at Tampere University of Applied Sciences. Charlotte is also a member of the CARDE research group because of her concerns regarding the datafication of children. Her paper, co-authored with David Keating, “Looking in the Post-Covid Crystal Ball: Utopian and dystopian possibilities for Dubai private schools offering synchronous blended learning,” recently won the Outstanding Paper Award at the TCC Online conference in Hawaii.
