Rate My Professor Sharon Flecknoe

Her academic interests include blended learning, collaborative learning, flipped classrooms, anatomy and physiology, active learning, and science outreach. Early research focused on fetal lung development, particularly alveolar epithelial cell differentiation and the impact of lung expansion in fetal sheep. Notable publications from this period include "Increased lung expansion alters the proportions of type I and type II alveolar epithelial cells in fetal sheep" (Flecknoe et al., 2000, American Journal of Physiology - Lung Cellular and Molecular Physiology), "Changes in alveolar epithelial cell proportions during fetal and postnatal development in sheep" (Flecknoe et al., 2003, same journal), and "Regulation of alveolar epithelial cell phenotypes in fetal sheep: roles of cortisol and lung expansion" (Flecknoe et al., 2004, same journal). More recently, she has published on higher education pedagogy, such as "Redefining academic identity in an evolving higher education landscape" (Flecknoe et al., 2017, Journal of University Teaching & Learning Practice) and contributed chapters like "Perfusion" and "The Autonomic Nervous System" in Paramedic Principles and Practice (2021). With 25 research outputs, her work has garnered significant citations.
