Role in the project "Learning Lives"
Researching migrants, travellers and asylum seekers as part of the Learning Lives project. This involves identifying, recruiting and interviewing members of these groups, then
interpreting and analysing their life histories as well as their on-going lives through
the course of the Project.
Background & Expertise
Experience of teaching, learning, administration and management in educational
and industrial settings, including the development of industry-education links
in Swindon and Wiltshire. My most recent experience has been in the completion,
at the University of Bath, of a doctoral thesis entitled: Fostering a Disposition
to Lifelong Learning: pupils' perceptions and policy assumptions at Key Stage 3.
My research interests continue to be in understanding more about the ways in
which individuals make sense of their lives and their worlds, given the
particular social and cultural settings they have experience of.
