Biography

Coral Campbell is a Professor of Science Education (retired) with the School of Education, Deakin University Australia, based at the Geelong Waurn Ponds campus. She has been an active member of Deakin University's Strategic Research Centre - Research for Educational Impact (REDI), involved in the Impact and Engagement subcommittee.  Coral is the Australian Coordinator of the Early Childhood Special Interest Group for the European Science Education Research Association, having previously served for 6 years as a Board Director of the Australasian Science Education Research Association.

Involved in industry, school and tertiary education for many years, Coral brings these experiences together to inform her research. Coral’s teaching and research interests are in practitioner learning and students’ understanding in science and STEM, in all schooling sectors. She is currently involved in several large nationally-funded projects related to developing new insights and informing future directions in STEM. With a  focus on early learning, Coral's research trajectory has explored issues of Science/STEM including creativity, gender and technologies through a number of funded projects. 

Impacting the field, Coral led the development of the first research-based Australian text for pre-service early childhood educators and practitioners, Science in Early Childhood (Cambridge University Press), now in its fifth edition. She has published several other books and contributed chapters in other science and STEM education research publications. She  contributes to a broad range of journals and is on the review panels for several international journals. In 2017, Coral won  a scholarship from the Association of Graduates of Early childhood Studies, to undertake research in early learning in STEM in Europe. 

Coral has been involved in teaching in early childhood, primary and secondary science/STEM education areas, environmental education, and design technology education..  She works closely with the local school communities, promoting experiential learning for her education students. Over the years, Coral has gained four teaching awards, and a Deakin Research Award for research partnerships.
