- I was Chair of the new RSA Fellowship Council 2009/2010. I have a particular interest in looking at new formats and approaches to helping us get connected and make and do things.
Apart from the RSA, my big projects at the moment is Social Spaces.

I also work in education, currently lecturing part time on metacognition on the University of Chichester MA (Ed) programme.
I start my PHD at Institute of Education in April 2012. The study will focus on expanding the research results of my MA research into learning processes for enhancing executive control, and integrating wellbeing and learning into a metacognitive framework.

From the blog post I had emails/comments from about 9 Fellows who had ideas or wanted to support the project, so thank you very much for responding so positively and quickly!
