INTRODUCING Dr AUDEN
Dr Auden's research over recent years has been into issues surrounding boys’ education. This has become a hot issue in Australia and his work has been popular with schools here and abroad.
As an educator with a passion for improving the relevance of education for our students, Michael's input into his publications involves a modern and realistic approach to what is possible in a modern schooling situation. He approaches his writing and material development from a realistic viewpoint which sees educational progress by increments rather than by revolution.
Teachers and leaders often comment on the matter-of-fact style and ideas that his books offer them. These ideas are digestible and useful in a classroom context.
