Dr David Millar

I obtained my PhD in Solar Physics in 2023, where I carried out observations of solar flares using cutting edge telescopes. After a short post-doc in this area, I made a shift into my current work which is focused on Physics Education.

My teaching respnsiblities are wide-ranging, and include: supervising student projects in astronomy; laboratories; small group supervisions; delivering lectures as part of Exploring the Cosmos on Stars and Stellar Structure. I am passionate about delivering engaging and inclusive teaching, to facilitate an excellent learning environment for students.

My current research is focused on the use of generative AI in physics education. In this fast-developing area I feel it is our job as educators to ensure that students are using this technology in a responsible way to enhance their education. You can see some of my work in this area in Posters and presentations.
