Biography
Blake Cutler is a Research Assistant with the Monash Q Project. He investigates how research evidence is used in schools, and how to support educators to better use that evidence in their practice. In addition to his work with the Q Project, Blake is a co-investigator on a longitudinal study which explores how we can best support pre-service and early-career teachers to adopt LGBTIQ-inclusive pedagogies.
Blake is passionate about supporting teachers' quality use of research evidence in their classrooms and making our education system more inclusive for all, with a particular interest in relation to LGBTIQ students and educators. He is also a practicing Primary/Secondary Music teacher and brings a strong practitioner focus to his research.
