About me
Brooke is the Program Director of the Medical Sonography programs.
Prior to academia, Brooke worked for over a decade as a radiographer/sonographer in major public hospitals. Her passion for teaching and learning saw her complete a graduate diploma in education, and she now enjoys linking her clinical and education knowledge in her current role.
Brooke’s recent research in to the use of high-fidelity ultrasound simulators in the teaching of obstetric ultrasound skills to health professionals earned her a first-class honours degree.
With a continuing focus on skills development and awareness in allied health professionals, Brooke is currently completing a PhD program, where she is investigating the development and accuracy of self-judgement and evaluation of clinical skills competency throughout tertiary health education.
Preparing students to be safe, reflective, and collaborative health practitioners is a major focus of Brooke’s work, particularly in her role as course coordinator for the capstone course of the Medical Sonography program. Brooke especially enjoys the challenge of how best to support students’ learning needs in a program, which is delivered purely to external students, whilst equally encouraging students to be autonomous in their learning.
Brooke has recently accepted that she no longer needs to add two spaces following a full-stop, but will continue to persist in her use of the Oxford comma.
