Learning and teaching philosophy

Robyn’s learning and teaching, and teaching research has been predominantly influenced by the seminal works of Dewey (1933) and Vygotsky (1978) and the reflective practice literature/s of Brookfield (1995), Korthagen, Kessels, Koster, Lagerwerf Wubbels (2001), Loughran (2002, 2006), Russell (1997, 2004) and Schön (1983). This research has provided her with a pedagogical knowledge base that has shaped both her practice and, as a consequence, students’ and colleagues’ learning. Robyn’s philosophy is that her personal experience, and her reflection on experience in socially constructed learning environments (Vygotsky, 1978) underpins knowledge construction and the systematic analysis of evidence-based teaching improves learning and teaching outcomes.

Biography

Professor Robyn Brandenburg is a teacher-educator researcher in the Institute of Education, Arts and Community, Federation University, Victoria. For the past 15 years she has taught Mathematics Education, Professional Policy, Practice and Responsibility and Professional Experience Courses in the Bachelor of Education. Student and teacher learning are at the core of her work. Using Self-Study methodology to research her teaching practice, she has published widely and is nationally and internationally renowned for her work in reflective practice and student feedback and evaluation. Robyn has published books about researching teaching including, Powerful Pedagogy (2008); Pedagogies for the Future (Edited, 2013); Teacher Education: Innovation, intervention and Impact (Edited, 2016) and Reflective Theory and Practice in Teacher Education (Edited, 2016, forthcoming). Robyn developed Roundtable Reflective Inquiry (RRI, 2004, 2008) – an innovative, reflective approach to learning about teaching based on a socially structured examination of experiences. This practice has been successfully used with teachers, school leaders and university staff. She has led education research projects and used both qualitative and quantitative methodologies.
