Research
Jane has dual research areas in design pedagogy and food and design alliances collaboratively with Rachel Hurst. These unite teaching and learning practises with scholarly research. Jane and Rachel have written 2 book chapters in Memory in Architecture and Eating Architecture. They were also invited to publish in Architectural Design: Food and the City in 2005. Jane's enjoyment and commitment to continue professional interior design practise and maintain a high level skill base is reflected in her involvment in 8 community based consultancy projects for the University. Each project embeds research, sustainability and best practise and informs her teaching programs by disseminating and applying current and relevant technical, practical and managerial information. Three of these consultancies have employed student involvement in the research, site analysis and documentation stages. Jane is currently pursuing consultancy work for community groups. Jane's work with Rachel has informed the production of three separate artworks exhibited locally and interstate which explore their unique collaboration in both academic and domestic realms. Other collaborative creative works investigate themes of domesticity and the everyday.

Jane's teaching areas have been in all year levels of Interior Architecture Studio and in the Graduate Diploma of Design (Interior Architecture) and Master of Design (Interior Architecture). Her teaching addresses themes of memory, identity and the everyday and alliances of food with design as a teaching pedagogy which aligns with her research interests. These awarded teaching practises respond to cultural difference and expression, clear language, flexibility, regional and cultural specificity, health, climate and environment and socio-economic circumstances. Jane has developed a highly integrated program for post graduate studies which engages students in real projects that make connections with industry and local government client groups. These germane projects replicate professional practise of design and directly prepare students for employment while forging industry connections.
