Hello fellow academics and teachers!
Have you used one of my publications, or digital projects like the Real Face of White Australia, in your teaching (since 2020)?
If so, I would love to hear how you've used my work and how students have responded – and see your unit / course outline, too!

As we enter the Year of the Dragon in 2024, here’s a look back at how the Chinese community in the tin mining settlement of Thomas’ Plains Tasmania, celebrated New Year in 1884 – one hundred and forty years ago!
In my latest blog post, I issue a word of warning to family historians who might be relying on a family tree from Ancestry.com for information about their ancestor’s Chinese origins.
