About me.

 Brief info which may be enough.


  1.  I'm Professor Alan Francis Harrison. "Soft science" is any of the specialized fields or disciplines, as psychology, sociology, anthropology, or political science, that interpret human behavior, institutions, society, etc., on the basis of scientific investigation for which it may be difficult to establish strictly measurable criteria.

  2. I chose social psychology and worked in the tourism industry. My first (Honours) degree is in social psychology - Open University. My first university lectureship was at Surrey University in 1974.

  3. "Hard science" is about establishing strictly measurable criteria. I retired in 2000 and took up hard science in a big way. Recently, I started looking at artificial intelligence in the context of spacetime application. All my life I have been interested in the stars and why they exist. Through my blogs I share my passion for the subject. 

  4. I have a blog system which is intended to give you support when helping your children learn about science. Fascinated at school by a compass point being turned by a nearby low voltage electric wire, I went on to a more than a passing interest in science and astrophysics.

  5. I have been a Primary School Governor when my daughters were at the school during and before which time I taught science topics within the present children's website on an informal basis over a period of three years.

  6. Primarily, I am an educationalist: i.e. a person who has a special knowledge of the principles and methods of teaching. 

  7. That also requires being an educationist who is a specialist in the theory of education. I have a Master's degree in Education - Edinburgh.  more

  8. I live 12 miles west of Oxford (Charlbury) and offer help to primary school pupils and parents. 

  9. Parents can request specific themes via their school within weekly visits.
