Kerri-Lee Krause is Chair in Higher Education, Director of the Griffith Institute for Higher Education and Dean (Student Outcomes) at Griffith University, Brisbane, Australia. Her role connects the student experience and outcomes with support for academic staff and curriculum development; she works as adviser and consultant to academics, policy-makers, administrators and support staff. Increasingly her focus is on institutional performance and quality enhancement in higher education, and she serves on the expert panel developing institutional performance indicators for Australian HE. She is an international reviewer for the Scottish Quality Assurance Agency, currently leads an Australian Learning and Teaching Council (ALTC) funded project on leadership development for program leaders in multicampus universities  and co-directs the Government-funded fourth national study of the First Year Experience with Professor Richard James (Centre for the Study of Higher Education, The University of Melbourne). With Richard James she also examined the effects of disciplinary cultures on approaches to teaching and learning, supported by an Australian Research Council Discovery Grant. Her national ALTC project examined teaching-research links across disciplines and at institutional policy level.  She is a member of the HE Forum for the Queensland State Government, which funded her work on strategies for enhancing participation rates of students from low socio-economic backgrounds.  She contributed to the 'Educating the Net Generation' ALTC project and led the Australian arm of an international project for the US-based IMS Global Learning Consortium on online learning in first year university. She co-authored the award-winning text Educational psychology for learning and teaching (Krause, Bochner, Duchesne & McMaugh, Cengage Publishers, 2009, 3rd ed.) and Cyberlines: Languages and cultures of the internet (Gibbs & Krause, JNP, 2000). http://www.griffith.edu.au/professional-page/professor-kerri-lee-krause

Her consultancy and research includes work for UNESCO, OECD, UUK, and the UK funding bodies. She has taught at all levels from primary to adult education and was previously involved in social and youth work.

		John Richardson
John Richardson is Professor in Student Learning and Assessment at the Open University (OU). His main research interests are in the interrelationship between students’ perceptions of courses and their approaches to studying. He is also responsible for institutional research into course and programme evaluation at the OU, and was part of the HEFCE-funded OU team which piloted the National Student Survey in 2003-2005. He taught psychology at Brunel University for 26 years before being appointed to a new chair in the OU’s Institute of Educational Technology. He was a co-director of the 2004-2008 project on the social and organisational mediation of university learning in the ESRC Teaching and Learning Research Programme. In 2008 his literature review on the role of ethnicity and gender as predictors of degree attainment was part of the HEA/ECU Ethnicity, Gender and Degree Attainment Project, and he co-authored a report for HEFCE on league tables and their impact on HE institutions. He was in 2009 elected to the Academy of Social Sciences. Despite being a ‘lapsed psychologist’ he retains an interest in the history of psychology and of the neurosciences more generally. He was president of the International Society for the History of the Neurosciences in 2002-2003. Over the last ten years, he has been working on a book about the work of the physicians based at the Ellis Island immigration station in New York during the early 20th Century. They were charged with assessing the health and in particular the intelligence of potential immigrants seeking entry to the United States, and John believes that the tests they devised were very influential in the subsequent history of intelligence testing. His book on the subject will be published by Columbia University Press in about a year’s time. http://iet.open.ac.uk/people/view-profile.cfm?view=profile&staff_id=j.t.e.richardson
