The Centre for Teaching, Learning and Curriculum (TLC) is concerned with questions relating to education in schools, universities, community and out-of-school contexts, including a focus on issues of social justice. We research the learning of individuals, groups and systems from a range of perspectives, including practitioner research.
Our areas of research
- subject pedagogy
- school leadership
- teacher education
- professional learning
- teacher educator learning
- neuroscience and education
- technology and education
- the climate emergency/global challenges and education
The centre benefits from methodological diversity alongside common interests in de-colonisation and indigenous pedagogies and perspectives.
A key aim of the Centre is to provide a space for the sharing of ideas and expertise, promoting joint writing and joint research bids.
The Centre is a home for many doctoral students in the School of Education.
Coming soon
