Biography

Biography 

I am an Associate Professor at Deakin University, and a Director of the Laboratory of International Assessment Studies. I am interested in education policy, regulation and reform; global networks, aid and development; the social studies of science and technology (STS), the sociology of numbers, and critical data studies. I explore how policy ideas are assembled and how they gain influence. I use concepts from STS to explore quantification and comparison, PISA, the history of indicators in education, national and global education reforms, datafication and accountability. I have a growing interest in AI and ethics, digital platforms and cultures, and human-digital assemblages in learning.

I am a member of Research for Educational Impact; a founding member of the Science and Society Network; and a Theme Leader for Data Cultures. 

Current Projects

Laboratory of International Assessment Studies

In 2014, together with Mary Hamilton (Lancaster University), Bryan Maddox (University of East Anglia) and Camilla Addey (University of East Anglia), I set up the Laboratory of International Assessment Studies, which aims to bring together producers, consumers and critics of international assessments to explore how we might understand the extraordinary role and power of international assessments and comparisons in current policy regimes. The Laboratory seeks to bring together these disparate communities to promote the generation of better assessments, better use of assessments and better critique of assessments. The Laboratory has assembled an Expert Group of significant academics, policy makers, officials of transnational organisations, and test producers who advise and guide the Laboratory.
The Laboratory won the prestigious ESRC Seminar Grant to organise six international seminars on various aspects of international assessments (I was a co-CI on this grant, with UEA’s Bryan Maddox and PI). The first Laboratory publication, the edited volume Literacy as Numbers (Cambridge University Press) was launched in March 2015.  The Laboratory is also undertaking exploratory research in June 2015 in the area of computer-based assessments through an internal UEA grant.
