Biography
Eveline has worked in language education for over two decades, in teacher education programs in the areas of language and literacy development and TESOL, and teaching students from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds in school and tertiary contexts.
Her primary field of research and teaching is in English language and literacies education. Her research focuses on how learning is mediated by multiple semiotic systems in both physical and digital spaces, and seeks to identify pedagogical models to support students through critical transitions in their education. Findings from her research have implications for literacy development, teaching and assessment; academic and disciplinary literacies; and reading in hypertext environments.
Eveline serves on the Editorial Review Board of English Teaching: Practice & Critique and is a peer reviewer for scholarly journals indexed in Web of Science areas of Education, Linguistics and Language, and Computer Science Applications. She also serves on the Executive Committee of the Australian Literacy Educators’ Association Northern NSW Council.
