Personal profile
Description of research and teaching
Research areas include research ethics and integrity; academic writing and plagiarism; ethics of supervision; academic teacher development; teacher education; teacher identity; and teacher beliefs. I have taught academics extensively supporting them to develop their teaching competences (University pedagogy) in educational planning and understanding of students' learning processes. I have engaged in and developed supervision, both in the context of MA thesis and doctoral education. My teaching also includes research ethics and integrity.
