He is currently the director of the Centre for Schooling and Learning Technologies (CSaLT) in the School of Education. He has always considered himself to be both a teacher and learner from early years in an innovative state secondary school in Western Australia to conducting research in schools and working with pre-service and practicing teachers at two universities. His aim has been to improve the opportunities for all children to develop as decision-making, empowered, responsible, relational citizens through engaging and relevant schooling. His focus is on implementation strategies for using ICT to support learning in schools, particularly as applied to portable computing, assessment and curriculum development in technology education.
