Teaching

My main role is Course Leader for the BSc Sport and Physical Activity degree. I am responsible for managing the timetable, all academic issues and for course admissions. I am also year coordinator for the Third Year of the degree.

I am class leader for B1123 Culture and Context, B1221 Coaching and Sport Development, B1313 Placement and Professional Development, B1479 Research Project and B1408 Practical Project in Sport and Physical Activity Development. I also contribute to B1405 Dissertation.

Research Interests

My research explores the use of technology and music within physical activity and exercise, including:

• sensorimotor synchronisation with music, in particular synchronising walking cadence (in collaboration with Perception and Action lab)

• the use of mobile music to promote increased intensity and duration of physical activity

• the use of ubiquitous mobile devices for activity monitoring, in particular the use of mobile accelerometry 

• design of user interfaces for mobile applications in physical activity (in collaboration with Mobiquitous Lab)

• the use of mobile devices and web technologies in large-scale physical activity interventions
