CV:

Brian HUDSON, PhD is Professor of Education and, as from 01.04.2010, Associate Dean (Research) in the School of Education, Social Work and Community Education at the University of Dundee. Initially he worked as a secondary school teacher of mathematics for fifteen years until moving into teacher education in 1988 at Sheffield City Polytechnic. In 1995 he completed his PhD in mathematics education on the topic of Group Work with Multimedia in the Secondary Mathematics Classroom. Subsequently he was awarded a Personal Chair as Professor of Education at Sheffield Hallam University in 2001 and a National Teaching Fellowship by the Higher Education Funding Council of England in 2004. He moved to Umeå University as Professor in Educational Work for ICT and Learning in 2005 and joined the University of Dundee in October 2009. He continues to work as a visiting professor at Umeå University at this time. Currently he is the network co-ordinator of the Teacher Education Policy in Europe (TEPE) Network and main convenor for Network 27 of the European Educational Research Association (EERA) on Didactics – Learning and Teaching. He is a Fellow of the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications and also a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy.
