Research interests

Research focus

My research and scholarship focuses on teacher education knowledges and assessment.

Teacher education knowledges

Theoretically this work is informed by Lee Shulman's concept of pedagogical reasoning and Stepney and Thomson's concept of theorising practice. Both theories inform my scholarship and my approach to professional knowledge development in ITE. I am currently working with David Morrison-Love to understand how to support the development of pedagogic reasoning with MDTechEd students through the use of David's Adaptive Subject Pedagogy model. We are currently developing a theory of practice from this work centred on knowledge development as part of pedagogic reasoning. 

Assessment

My work on assessment currently centres on the Camau i'r Dyfodol project (PIs: Makara Fuller, Morrison-Love, and Singh). This project is working with education professionals and policymakers across the education system in Wales to co-construct knowledge of learning progression and assessment to support realisation of the new Curriculum for Wales. The Camau i'r Dyfodol wepage contains further information about the project.

Research network

I am a member of the University of Glasgow Educational Assessment Network (UGEAN) which is part of the Robert Owen Centre for Educational Change

Methodological expertise

I have expertise in qualitative analysis, particularly inductive thematic analysis and conducting narrative synthesis literature reviews.

Project description

The Camau i’r Dyfodol project (Steps to the Future) is a 3-year joint project of the University of Wales Trinity Saint David and the University of Glasgow in collaboration with Welsh Government. The project is designed to develop new knowledge and support the realisation of Curriculum for Wales by working with teachers and educational partners across the system to co-construct project outputs that will advance practical understandings of learning progression. Change led by those at the heart of the system provides the best opportunity for sharing expertise, building confidence, fostering coherence across the system and for supporting the different people and organisations who matter in education in Wales.

Professional culture among new entrants to the teaching profession

Project staff 

Moira Hulme (PI); Dely Eliot, Kay Livingston, Fiona Patrick

Project decription

This research was commissioned by the General Teaching Council for Scotland, in partnership with the Scottish Government and is based on an acknowledgement that the process of becoming a teacher has changed significantly since the 2001 National Agreement (A Teaching profession for the 21st Century). The key remit for the research was to explore the proposition that teachers who have qualified for registration over the past five years have a different outlook on teaching as a profession to that of their more experienced colleagues.

Teacher Working Time Research

Project staff

Project description

This research was commissioned to assess the extent to which a 35 hour working week had been achieved following the Teachers’ National Agreement, A Teaching Profession for the 21st Century (2001). An important element of the National Agreement was the formal adoption of a 35 hour working week as the basic contractual working time agreed for all teachers in Scotland, including those in promoted posts as well as those who were unpromoted.
