Personal profile
Biography
Worked at British Gas Midland Research Station carrying out mathematical modelling of safety scenarios before joining Coventry University in 1987. Became Associate Dean of the School of Mathematical and Information Sciences in 2001
Research Interests
Current research is focused on the development of learner identities in mathematics – both for those on specialist mathematics courses and those on courses where mathematics has a supporting role. A particular focus in the latter case is the transition from school to university. Related to this is evaluation of the effectiveness of mathematics support including the use of new technologies
