I have been working as a teacher educator for a number of years, formerly in the field of professional studies and currently in science education. Apart from teaching science education in the institute, my main interest is in educational research particularly in the areas of science curriculum development, enquiry-based pedagogy, scientific reasoning, the science-technology-society approach, and decision-making about socio-scientific issues.
Research interests
•Students’ scientific reasoning
•Science curriculum development
•Enquiry-based pedagogy
