My initial approach to this topic was through my experiences at UNSW, particularly my recent experiences in the School of education. I have had a range of teaching and learning experiences, from primary through to tertiary teaching and research, and I decided that this, combined with my background as research scientist, equipped me to explore the potential parallels between studies in the social and behavioural sciences and studies in the biological sciences, particularly in the areas such as neuroscience and genetics. In recent years I have pursued this goal, in conjunction with Prof John Sweller and Dr Slava Kalyuga at UNSW.
