I am Professor of Educational Technology at the Open University. My interests are in Digital Scholarship, open education and impact of new technologies. I’ve authored several books, including The Digital Scholar and Battle for Open which are available under an open access licence. Other publications can be found here. I am also co-editor of the open access journal, JIME.
I am Director of the OER Research Hub, President of ALT, and ICDE Chair in OER. I regularly provide workshops and keynote talks on the use of social media by academics, open education, and online learning.
I live in Cardiff, and have a season ticket for Cardiff Devils ice hockey.
