Naomi is Professor of Educational Psychology in the Surrey Institute of Education at the University of Surrey. Naomi is also an Honorary Professor in the Centre for Research in Assessment and Digital Learning (CRADLE) at Deakin University, Australia. She is a Principal Fellow of the Higher Education Academy and a UK National Teaching Fellow. Naomi is a cognitive psychologist specialising in the processing and impact of instructional feedback, and the influence of dominant discourses of assessment and feedback in policy and practice on the positioning of educators and students in feedback processes. Her 2019 book co-authored with David Carless, Designing Effective Feedback Processes in Higher Education: A Learning-focused approach set the agenda for new approaches to feedback policy and practice. Using her research and institutional leadership experience, Naomi works with schools, universities and organisations across the world to embed learning-focused approaches to feedback into practice.
