His research emphasizes multimodal knowledge-building in science education, particularly physics and chemistry, through the interplay of language, mathematics, and images. Collaborative projects with Karl Maton and J.R. Martin address pedagogical strategies for scientific explanations and semantic profiling in history education.
Selected grants include a 2011 NSW Department of Education-funded project on multimodal learning in physics. Publications span books, edited volumes, journal articles, and book chapters, with a focus on SFL methodologies and LCT applications.
