Biographical statement

I am a web and e-learning developer and part of the School's web team and e-learning group. Coming from both mathematical and technical backgrounds, I am particularly interested in the challenges of communicating mathematics on the web, as well as more general web development and pedagogy. I have recently been involved in the JISC-funded MathAssess and FETLAR projects, as well as a number of other development projects and I am the architect and maintainer of a number of mathematical technology-related open source software projects.

Further information about the e-learning group can be found at our group website.
