His current work focuses on the development of infused approaches to the cultivation of positive lifelong learning dispositions in schools.

"The contributors′ thoughts about the importance of a disciplinary framework as a necessary foundation for building greater creative and intuitive insight are so true. Their examples of the artist’s performance as being an ′interplay between the intuitive and the conscious′ are wonderful. I also appreciated the discussions on the importance of collegial work and empathy."
