Borg is a lecturer in the School of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences. Originally from Malta, he holds a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Philosophy, and a Higher National Diploma in Psychology. He is also a CELTA-qualified English teacher. During his career in English language teaching, Borg developed a strong interest in gamification, which later became the central focus of his research.

He furthered his studies by earning an MSc in Organizational and Work Psychology from the University of Limerick, Ireland. Borg’s undergraduate dissertation examined how local primary school teachers integrate gamification techniques into their teaching, while his master’s research investigated whether gamified training influences job applicants’ perceptions of a company compared to conventional training approaches.

Research interests:

  • Gamification in most spheres but especially in education and training endeavors
  • Work and organizational psychology 
  • Pedagogy
  • English as a second language 
  • Theatre
