About me
Kim is a veterinary surgeon with over 17 years experience in e-learning for veterinary and medical education. He joined the new LIVE team at the Royal Veterinary College in May 2006 as Senior Lecturer in Independent Learning.
In Denmark
My dog - she loves water...
What I hope to get out of this project
I hope that we can create a learning community that will help us to understand how groups like this can work remotely. I also would like to see everyone being engaged in and empowered by this exciting opportunity.
My best learning experience
Probably, learning to ring church bells. It was a true community of practice with experts who showed what we were aiming for and guided us as learners in a difficult technical challenge - just enough challenge so it was interesting, and then as soon as we were able to help others, guided to take on the role of supporter/teacher.
Pathology that interests me
I was introduced to human forensic pathology when at Bristol University - this can clearly be very shocking, but a really enthusiastic pathologist made it 'come alive'! I'm also keen on stories, so I guess forensic path has that characteristic too.
Pathology that I think is difficult
Initially, just the concepts and the 'new' language. Later on, being able to apply the basics to 'real' situations.
