Dialogic feed forward in assessment: Pivotal to learning but not unproblematic (2022)
Journal Article

A key debate in higher education is how assessment and feedback can be constructed to maximize opportunities for meaningful student learning. In this paper, we explore how a learning-focused model of feedback, teacher-student dialogic feed-forward, i...

The influence of the North Atlantic oscillation & East Atlantic pattern on drought in British catchments (2022)
Journal Article

Drought events are influenced by a combination of both climatic and local catchment characteristics. In Great Britain the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) has long been recognised as the leading mode of climate variability, and studies have also note...

The spatio-temporal influence of atmospheric circulations on monthly precipitation in Great Britain (2022)
Journal Article

It has long been understood that the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) is a key driver of regional climate in Great Britain and across Europe. However, studies have also noted that there is spatio-temporal variability in NAO-rainfall signatures which...

Separated by a common language of assessment? Undertaking a linguistic analysis of assessment documentation (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Assessment and feedback are a key part of the student experience in higher education. Despite advances in practice in recent years, universities still frequency receive low student satisfaction scores in this area. Reasons for this may include discre...

Monthly rainfall signatures of the North Atlantic oscillation and East Atlantic pattern in Great Britain (2021)
Journal Article

Atmospheric-oceanic circulations (teleconnections) have an important influence on regional climate. In Great Britain, the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) has long been understood as the leading mode of climate variability, and its phase and magnitud...

Formalising the relationship between Geography Education & Geographies of Education as GeogEd (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

In 2019, the Higher Education Research Group (HERG) formally became the Geography and Education Research Group (GeogEd). What may appear as a simple change in name masks a renewed understanding of the synergies between geography education (at all lev...
