I am a Lecturer in the School of Education at the University of Newcastle, Australia. In the past, I have worked as a classroom teacher, school leader and education consultant in Government and Non-government sectors. My research interests are in teacher professional learning, curriculum and pedagogy.
This website is maintained as a resource for my students and other teachers I work with. You will find a range of resources here for teachers and student teachers, a collection of my academic papers and professional learning presentations, and my blog, ‘Thinking About Learning’. I hope you find the site helpful and hope to hear from you should you have any questions or feedback.
