My primary research expertise is investigating the impact of mobile technology and digital applications and services on people's behaviour and the implications of this from both a formal and informal learning and usability perspective. I have led and been a project partner on research projects that have been sponsored by funders such as the European Space Agency, the European Social Fund, BT, Orange, Sharp Laboratories Europe and 3. In addition, I have also received an Industrial Secondment Award from the Royal Academy of Engineering.
