About

I have many identities. I am the Faculty Learning Technology Lead for the Faculty of Social and Historical Sciences at UCL. I am also a part-time PhD Student at the Centre for Learning Technology, Lancaster University, wife, mother, sister and owner of two cats.

I started this blog to focus my attention on Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs).  I have completed my MSc Digital Education with Edinburgh University (yay)  and so this blog has become my musings over all things digital for education.  At the time of writing this I was very keen to keep my interests and thoughts about all things digital education going through this blog but the inevitable happened and I have not be as prolific as I thought.  I also started a PhD with Lancaster University (e-Research and Technology Enhanced Learning) way back in 2016 and through a range of setbacks, new jobs and family circumstances (aka ‘life’) I am writing up my research now.

This blog is partly for me to share my ideas as well as to host pages about my PhD research. I have opinions and experiences around digital education, social justice, online learning, but whether or not I will be writing about these remains to be seen. I am using this as a way for me to think things through, my own motivation and see what ends up where.

All the views I have are not to be confused with anyone else’s.
