Research-Informed Learning
Using current research and published studies to support conceptual clarity, informed discussion, and stronger critical thinking in class.
Teaching Philosophy
Bridging
Theory and Practice
I teach project management by linking conceptual understanding with the practical conditions of project work. My teaching aims to help students think critically, engage with industry practice, and apply ideas with judgement in complex professional settings. This means creating learning environments where concepts are tested against real cases, professional constraints, and diverse stakeholder expectations. It also means helping students connect formal project management knowledge with the decisions they face in their own workplaces and careers.
Teaching Approach
Industry Relevance
Connecting subjects with governance, contracts, risk, stakeholder issues, and the practical realities of project delivery.
Reflective Professional Learning
Designing learning activities that ask students to interpret evidence, question assumptions, and relate subject content to practice.
Block-Mode Postgraduate Delivery
My current teaching is all in block-mode postgraduate delivery, with many industry experts invited into the classroom to enrich intensive sessions.
