I am happy to share the news that I have recently been awarded the status of Fellow of the Higher Education Academy by meeting the criteria of the UK Professional Standards Framework for teaching and Learning.

In 2016 I was appointed as an assistant professor at the Aga Khan University in Dar es Salaam where I am now teaching M Ed students who are specializing in Assessment, Measurement and Evaluation. It is an intensive program and right now the students are doing their practicum for which I am fully involved. I addition to teaching, I also participate in outreach activities within the East African region of Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania where there are programs organized by the Institute for Educational Development, East Africa under the auspices of the Aga Khan University. This means that I will be traveling to both Kenya and Uganda periodically. I am also involved in supervision of some students writing their dissertations. [8-16]
