Über den Autor


Kathy Smith is Senior Lecturer at Monash University with specialisations in primary science education and teacher professional learning. Kathy has worked with the Victorian Department of Education and Early Childhood Development (DEECD) on a number of science projects including Primary Connections and Coaching workshops. Her work has also included an ongoing 8-year relationship with Catholic Education Melbourne (CEM), where she has developed and facilitated a number of teacher professional learning initiatives aimed at enhancing teacher confidence and supporting the learning and teaching of science at all levels of schooling. Undertaking work as an Education Consultant has also enabled Kathy to gain extensive experience working with schools in the Government and Independent sectors, supporting teachers with planning and pedagogy. This work built upon previous experiences with Manager of Education programs for the Monash Science Centre, located at Monash University. In this position she was able to oversee the provision of quality school-based support for science education, particularly in primary schools, across all sectors. Prior to these roles Kathy worked as a Sessional Lecturer in Science and Mathematics Education at RMIT and began her career working as a primary classroom teacher for nine years with the Victorian Department of Education. Critically, Kathy continues her involvement in teacher professional learning and has particular expertise in primary science education, with a particular interest in the conditions that build teachers' capacity for self-directed learning.
