Academic Interests
My scholarship is grounded in teacher professional learning and, over time, has extended into professional learning research across professions and academic disciplines. Through innovative development of the self-reflexive methodologies of self-study research, narrative inquiry, and autoethnography, my work has shown professionals as self-directed and self-developing learners who, in dialogue with others, can gain vital insights into their professional selves and practices – with critical implications for personal-professional growth and social transformation. I have collaborated across contexts and continents to enact and document methodological inventiveness in professional learning research using arts-based, bricolage, dialogic, memory-work, poetic, and polyvocal approaches.
Research Outcomes
A distinctive outgrowth of my scholarship has been the increasingly multifaceted and extensive exploration of what I have come to characterise as “professional poetic learning”. Another noteworthy research outcome has been the innovative conceptualisation of “polyvocal professional learning“, developed through an international research collaboration with Professor Anastasia P. Samaras (George Mason University, USA).
