My name is Dr Trish Powers. I work in Teaching and Learning Innovation as a Lecturer Academic Development. By driving collaborative initiatives and capability programs incorporating technology and digital pedagogies, I support academics in their course development and their journey to becoming accomplished lecturers. I have extensive online teaching and coaching experience in synchronous, asynchronous, and blended Hybrid/HyFlex modes in both undergraduate and post-graduate higher education. Prior to my current role, I was Senior Learning Advisor in the Centre for Learning, Teaching and Scholarship at Torrens University Australia.  I also worked as a Senior Lecturer within the Faculty of Education, responsible for designing curricula, mentoring learning facilitators, supervising Higher Degree by Research students and teaching on the Master of Education (Innovation & Change). In that role, I had the great pleasure of developing and delivering the Graduate Certificate in Learning and Teaching, an award-winning, university-wide, online professional development course, introducing innovative practices for delivery and evaluation. My PhD in Education examines the transition of adult higher education students,25 + years,  into the online learning space. This research assists learning facilitators expediting the student experience to design and facilitate their work with a greater understanding and teacher presence.
