Catherine taught art and technics in high schools and primary school before training as a school psychologist. She went on to complete a phd in psychology at Macquarie University and has taught psychology and research methods to a variety of students at the under graduate and graduate levels, including those studying teaching, clinical psychology, nursing, school counselling, physiotherapy, speech and occupational therapy. She has taught in several Australian universities and overseas. Catherine was state president of the Victorian branch of the Australian College of Educators and served as chair of the ACE national council and member of the ACE Board. She is a registered psychologist.

Catherine nominated two articles to form the basis for this ERRR discussion. The first is entitled Meta-memory and Successful Learning, and the second is the chapter on memory from Catherine’s excellent book, Learn to Teach, Teach to Learn. Catherine is a generalist and, as such, the discussion in this podcast is very wide ranging touching on numerous topics from memory, to mindfulness, to such questions as what is meant by ‘questioning for understanding’ as well as ‘what exactly is ‘Depth’ in learning?’
