Emerging technologies
Kathryn MacCallum has two passions - education and technology. So it’s no
surprise that her research focus is the use of technology to enhance learning and
her own teaching practice.
She finds it exciting but challenging to find new ways As a research mentor, Kathryn finds herself involved in
to engage students, from preschool to tertiary, using a number of interesting projects which typically involve
technology without knowing where it might lead. It is some manner of technology and education. For example,

Her recent research has involved finding ways to produce lower alcohol wine without reducing flavour and quality. The team of researchers on this project includes M. Carmo Vasconcelos, Stewart Field, Melissa Annand, Karen Ball, Elise Montgomery and Chey Dearing. The team is also working closely with Charles Sturt University in Australia. New Zealand’s Ministry for Primary Industries partnered carried out on Sauvignon Blanc grapes in 2015 and with New Zealand Winegrowers in 2014 on a $17 2016 seasons but it was found that the sprayed and million research and development project to produce the unsprayed grapes had similar sugar accumulation ‘lighter wines’ with less than 10% alcohol. It is the largest rates during ripening and so a similar sugar content at research and development effort ever undertaken by harvest. No consistent significant differences in sensory New Zealand’s wine industry. The research focus is to characteristics were found in the trials but acidity levels use sustainable viticultural techniques and native yeasts; were unacceptably high. a point of difference to other methods of creating low alcohol wines which tend to rely on manipulating the Following similar research in Italy on Sangiovese red wine itself.
