She recently led a HERDSA-funded grant exploring why students use ‘buy-sell-trade’ filing sharing sites with the view to inform institutional decision making.

Christine has been part of numerous academic integrity development initiatives, including the TEQSA-funded national academic integrity workshops and toolkit of resources.
