Research Support
Working within higher education for a number of years I have supported various research projects, including support with instruction, documentation, and technology implementation, the following are highlighted projects that I have worked on.
ACCELERATE
YEAR 2021-2023
Responsibility for this project included teaching VR/AR equipment and software, as well as documenting experiences and events taking place at BSU.
Project Details
The Erasmus+ funded 'Strategic Partnership' project, 'ACCELERATE: Accessible Immersive Learning for Art and Design'; coordinated by Bath Spa University and run in collaboration with the five other European Institutions listed below, began in 2021 and ran for two years.
The project provided opportunity for art and design lecturers, researchers and learning technologists from across the world to reflect on the impact of Covid-19 on higher education teaching, and to explore new possibilities for pedagogy and digital innovation.
TECHNOLOGY IN EDUCATION AND
THE CLASSROOM
THE CLASSROOM
YEAR 2017-2020
As part of my responsibilities for this project, I collaborated with the learning technologist to find solutions to problems and generating technological solutions that could enhance classroom learning.
Project Details
This research project aimed to explore how technology can be used to enhance the educational experience and pedagogy of lessons in the classroom. The project evaluated various user-friendly technologies and assessed their potential benefits and drawbacks, considering factors such as student engagement and learning outcomes. Following the completion of the research, some of the key findings were incorporated into a multi-million-pound development project for a new campus, creating a more modern and efficient learning environment for students and staff.
Artist Boss
YEAR 2013-2014
My role was to document parts of the project that took place at Bath School of Art & Design through photography, video and sound recording of interviews, and to edit the footage for the research project.
Project Details
This project, which was launched in collaboration between the Fine Art schools of Bath School of Art & Design and Norwich University of the Arts, aims to delve into the art world by conducting interviews with renowned sculptor Caro and his studio assistants. It also involves group discussions with artists and students, and features contributions from art critics and writers of Fine Art and Education. Its goal is to explore different aspects of artists' careers, their methods of creating art, and the communities they belong to.
