Dr Bec Neill is the Deputy Chair of the UniSA Human Research Ethics Committee and Program Director for Early Childhood Education in UniSA's Education Futures unit. 
She is an expert in systems thinking, problem solving, and the design and implementation of Digital Technology solutions in organisational settings. She holds a degree in Information Systems and a PhD in Communications, with extensive experience working as an ICT professional in private industry and public administration contexts. Her current work across a diverse range of educational settings as an education researcher, pre-service and in-service teacher educator, and education program director builds organisational capacity to deliver culturally responsive, digitally inclusive, and high value education and care systems.
Bec's teaching expertise encompasses digital technologies and pedagogies, integrated and personalised learning approaches, post-graduate ICT-industry and education-research project supervision, and child protection curricula and teaching practice. Her research investigates the human-technology relations of Australian families and their children. It uses visual critical systems methods to integrate population level data with families' and children's’ lived-experience, and maps the digital amplification of inequitable and violent geographical and gendered terrains of education in post-colonial Australian society.
Inquiry into child-family-community-technology relations is a cohesive theme across Bec’s diverse post-doctoral education research. As critical systems thinker and maternal feminist, her research engagement develops holistic views of:

integrating digital technologies curriculum in classroom and community settings;
Supporting young people's and their families' well-being in now-digital learning settings;
Critically and culturally responsive pedagogies and literacies in early childhood, primary, secondary and higher education.
