Research Interests

Current research relates to collaborative learning through exploratory course modules for part-time post-graduate students in which they undertake group action research projects, communicating within the group and with their tutors by asynchronous electronic messaging and conferencing. Such courses have been run in the Netherlands, Spain and, most recently, in Hong Kong. Data mining tools are now being used to monitor the contributions of members to the joint research. This 'research through courses' is complemented by more traditional PhD student research on knowledge sharing in organisations. I am currently a tutor on a course for francophone African university teachers with a focus on the changing role of tutors in an e-learning context.

Potential Doctoral Proposals

I am happy to work on-line with doctoral students in the general area of knowledge sharing and in particular e-learning. My focus is on learning in groups.
