Research interests and activities

Paul’s research can be broadly described as encompassing the processes around preparing students for entry to professional practice. He has investigated curriculum design; acquiring new knowledge and understanding; teaching, learning and assessment practices and how the environment which students operate in facilitates or hinders their learning.

Paul also has experience of researching educational mechanisms for cancer patients in the supportive care environment.
