Professor Mark Bahr (PhD, Diploma of Applied Psychology) is a cognitive developmental psychologist with special interests in learning theory, children's acquisition of cognitive skills, and age-related decline. He has been involved in two of the largest studies of educational reform in Australia. These studies have examined the impact of pedagogy directed at enriching base domain knowledge, and transparency of knowledge representation in the final analysis and reporting of the Queensland Schools Longitudinal Reform Study. This led to his role as a member of the multidisciplinary Framework Advisory Group which directed the evaluation and implementation of the New Basics in Queensland schools. This evaluation represented a radical shift in the nature of evaluation in Queensland education. Dr Bahr is currently the Chair of the Bond University Human Research Ethics Committee.
