Sheridan’s current role at the UniSA is that of Associate Director: Teaching Innovation Unit (TIU). The Unit’s mission is to provide and promote innovative learning and teaching practices that actively contribute to the quality of UniSA curriculum, and overall student learning experience. Through innovation and applied research, the TIU supports and builds staff teaching and learning capacityto provide a transformative educational experience that prepares our graduates for effective and productive participation in the 21st Century.
Sheridan is intersted in exploring how learning and teaching tools and technology, through the use of learning analytics, can be used to improve the student experience and academic performance. The propensity of academic staff to use academic performance data as indicators of success is distal of earlier learning behaviours. Therefore, Sheridan is interested in exploring the impact that personalised feedback, using real-time data of online learning behaviour, has academic success. Specifically, her work focusses on exploring the learning and teaching experiences, and behaviours that encourage high achieving students and those of average achieving students, with an aim to better inform our teaching practices to encourage student learning cross all academic levels.
She has a Ph.D. in Physiology and a Graduate Diploma in Biostatistics.
