Teaching

I am a Senior fellow of the Higher Education Academy and sit on the Plymouth University Teaching Development Accreditation Panel. I am a strong believer in the value of experiential learning through field and practical work and incorporating new learning technologies into the learning experience (e.g.Innovative use of Google Earth Professional and Drone Technology).

 My current teaching role incorporates:

  • Field teaching across the geosciences (UK, Iceland, Morocco, Portugal,Spain)
  • Fluvial geomorphology and sedimentology
  • Arid environments
  • Tectonic geomorphology
  • Cold environments
