Statement

My research activities are directed towards helping schools develop flexible, sustainable and innovative approaches to the relationship between pedagogy and learning space design. This work requires working closely with schools, teachers, administrators, architects and politicians. My teaching focuses on using my research to help student teachers to develop innovative ways of teaching and learning in suitable learning spaces using the body’s five senses engaging with materials and three-dimensional objects to achieve new knowledge and collaboratively develop culture. Technology and social media are central to this enterprise, and crucial to a culture’s active life, and so are fundamental to my teaching and learning activities.
