Jan has been part of the Escalate funded team looking at employer engagement. More recently she explored the role of video conferencing in supporting the early learning of trainee teachers. This was published in Escalate News, funded by a Sharing Ideas grant from Escalate and resulted in a workshop at the TEAN conference at the University of Glasgow. Teaching on a work based degree means that many of her research interests are focussed within this area.
