AboutI am a Lecturer in Digital Education within the Centre for Research in Digital Education and The Edinburgh Futures Institute at the University of Edinburgh, where I teach on the MSc in Digital Education and the MSc in Education Futures. I am co-editor of the Postdigital Science and Education book series (Springer), a co-author of the Manifesto for Teaching Online (MIT Press 2020), and run the Elektronisches Lernen Muzik project, where the relationship between music and learning is explored through playlists.

My research explores the ways that digital technologies affect learning spaces and practices, and the role of music and sound within education. At the current time (October 2025) I am writing about postdigital learning journeys, and visual approaches within learning futures work.
I am currently supervising PhD projects concerning audio pedagogy (Nick Hood), sonification in Science teaching (Chenxi Zhang) the postdigital writing spaces and practices of History researchers (Isabella Sinn), and multimodal feedback around assessment (Ruohan Ma). Before working as a researcher and lecturer, I was assistant director at Lothians Equal Access Programme for Schools where I helped young people from non-traditional backgrounds to access higher education.
