Publications

Prof. Anderson is published widely in his research areas and has been invited to convene and present numerous plenary and keynote talks and workshops to the international scientific community. He is also the invited author of the Bridging-the-Gap series in, “Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education”, which aims to encourage more faculty to apply educational research to their teaching practice. Central to his faculty development activities has been the design of the conceptual and reasoning difficulties (CARD) e-resource (http://www.card.unp.ac.za), which is aimed at developing research capacity in the area of student difficulties and teacher competence at tertiary and secondary levels.
