About

Peter Hudson is a leading figure in technology and science education, with a particular focus on preservice teacher development and the pedagogical integration of robotics. His research explores how emerging technologies can transform classroom practice, especially in preparing the next generation of educators to confidently design and implement engaging, hands-on learning experiences. Hudson’s most cited work, "Preservice teachers teaching technology with robotics" (2012), examines the impact of a robotics-based school engagement program on final-year education students. The study revealed significant gains in the preservice teachers’ perceived abilities and confidence to facilitate technology-rich activities, establishing a foundational model for embedding robotics into teacher training curricula. This influential paper has garnered 6 citations, reflecting its practical value in bridging theory and classroom application. Beyond this landmark study, Hudson has contributed extensively to mentoring frameworks, STEM education strategies, and the professional learning of both novice and experienced teachers. His work continues to shape how educators approach technology integration, ensuring that future teachers are not only users of technology but innovative designers of learning.
