Teaching Interests

My main teaching interests lie in building the identity of the teacher as curriculum maker and assessor, particularly in Initial Teacher Education.   I am passionate about how the agency of the teacher works in relation to curriculum and assessment and how a teacher can translate this agency into their pedagogy - methodology, learning strategies, differentiation and assessment.  I am also very enthusiastic about how leadership throughout the many levels of the education system, enact and engage with the process of curriculum making.  How a teacher develops as researcher and reflective practice through classroom research is also an important area of interest.
