Update my staff profile

Teaching commitment

Research Interests

Teacher librarianship. The impact of libraries on student learning. Teacher education, particularly self-study of teacher education practices. The use of IT tools, particularly networked bibliographic databases, in academic research.

Supervision

Ms Winter conducts no direct supervision of individual students, but rather offers help in research skills, particularly bibliographic searching skills, to research students and staff. Training workshops are offered in the use of various bibliographic databases useful for education research, as well as more general information tools, such as Internet browsers, and navigating around the networked environment. Support is also provided in the use of EndNote for preparing literature reviews and organising readings, and in the use of NVivo for qualitative data analysis.
