Ek is ‘n opvoeder in murg en been en beskik oor ‘n PhD in Wetenskap en Tegnologie onderwys. Ek was jare lank ‘n meesterhoërskoolonderwyseres en vyf jaar lank senior dosent aan Vista Universiteit, Welkomkampus. Nadat ek my PhD voltooi het, het ek my op navorsing toegespits.

My navorsingservaring sluit nadoktorale genoot (NWU & Unisa) en onafhanklike navorser (Unisa en in eie diens in). My navorsing handel hoofsaaklik oor hoe tegnologie ingespan kan word om onderrig en leer te bevorder. Ek dien op die redaksie van die AAEEBL ePortfolio Review, ‘n internasionale vaktydskrif oor die gebruik van e-portefeuljes in onderwys (sien ervaring). Ek was die hoofredakteur van die eerste uitgawe van die tweede volume, ‘n wonderlike leerskool.

Tans is ek besig om ‘n toep te ontwikkel om die deurlopende professionele ontwikkeling van onderwysers te ondersteun. Ek het ook by die Universiteit van die Vrystaat as navorsingsgenoot aangesluit en doen inhoudontwikkeling vir ‘n maatskappy wat werk vir tersiêre instellings doen.
