Conferences have been a fantastic way for me to develop ideas with other academics. As a teacher it has been very important for me to develop links with and feel part of a research community.
I have presented my research at the following conferences:
Identities, cultures and literacies (44th international conference of the United Kingdom Literacy Association, Liverpool) 2008

Digital Games (Popular Culture Association, Boston) 2007 (Funded by IOE Student Scholarship)
