I am a Learning Development Tutor at the University of Northampton, having joined in 2018. Prior to this I taught in primary education for over a decade, and before that, worked in the arts. My background connects with my ongoing interest in creative and active learning. My current research interests centre on the use of metaphor in learning and teaching, and on how international projects impact those involved in them.
How can I help learning developers?
I would be very interested to support other Learning Developers looking to expand their range of creative approaches in teaching and learning, in both online and physical classrooms. I am always happy to talk about critical thinking – both as a general concept, and as something we explore with students.
