I teach Maths at a Further Education College somewhere in the UK. I have been in teaching for about 15 years (must like it) and am now supporting colleagues and students using Information Learning Technology in their teaching and learning.

Past experience

• Counting containers on Seaforth dock
• Degree in Physics
• Research in Cryogenics (superfluid helium, not freezing Californians)
• Sporadic photography, sometimes even earning a small income
• PGCE after a period as a part time teacher

Current Projects

• Re-energising VLE activity in the College where I work
• Being creative with interactive whiteboards
• Simulating the Internetworking Protocol using a dozen 5" by 3" index cards
• Using a simple online forum to support students taking a Forensic Science module
• Loads of staff development

Off duty

• Sleeping
• Taking photographs
• Walking by the shore - the tide has to be just on the turn around dusk
• Reading (Iain Sinclair, Peter Ackroyd, Jenny Uglow)
