Annouchka has been researching, teaching and publishing on the subject of using arts-based
methods for developing teaching practice for several years now. 

Here she explores how using simple methods to encourage students to 'think like an artist', has seen them achieve higher grades, participate more in technologically relevant contexts and raise criticality and entusiasm. 

Annouchka has been researching, teaching and publishing on the subject of using arts-based methods for transdisciplinary contexts for several years now. Since completing her PHD, she has published several articles and has a forthcoming book on education with Palgrave Macmillan Publishers.

In 2014 Annouchka won the Warwick Award for Teaching Excellence. As a practising artist, she has written, directed and performed more than 20 shows across Europe and Asia. She is also an Emerging Director with the Royal Shakespeare Company.
