Over the last few years and since my Head of Accounting and Finance days I have developed a keen interest in student learning. In particular I am determined that sound educational research and development informs my professional practice. As a consequence I have found myself battling with the mysteries of IT and during the last couple of years have :

seen myself complete my first web based module thanks almost entirely to the author of The Complete Idiot's Guide to Creating an HTML Web Page.  Got to the web based Accounting Systems module

completed a study on  how to help first years overcome their learning difficulties by developing a web based glossary.

collaborated with colleagues from Glasgow's psychology department in evaluating innovations

analysed the  changes in Business School teaching, learning and assessment strategies occurring over three years

analysed the HEFCE 1992 TQA assessment reports for  the 18 Business and Management departments rated as providing excellent quality

studied the  extent to which  a web based organization system can support Higher Education learning

explored the extent to which  group decision support systems are able to support the development of advanced group working skills in HE students
