University of Pretoria
From the start of my career, my research focused on developing new statistical techniques, specifically in statistical quality / process control. In the last few years, I have deepened that focus to generate a more detailed understanding of how learning and assessment opportunities for students at all levels of the formal education system (early learning, primary, secondary and tertiary) and their overall mental health and well-being can be improved. I use sophisticated, novel statistical techniques to inform that understanding. I am a Full Professor at the University of Pretoria and have contributed to many fields, including education, healthcare, social issues, and agroforestry. I hold a doctoral degree in mathematical statistics from the University of Pretoria and am a Y1-rated researcher with the National Research Foundation (NRF), South Africa. I have published nearly 100 articles in peer-reviewed journals and regularly present my findings at national and international conferences.
