Greg Auhl has a lengthy background in Science and Inclusive Education in NSW Secondary Schools, having taught and coordinated extensively in both areas. Greg currently teaches in Inclusive Education at Charles Sturt University, although has maintained a keen interest in the developing National Curriculum in science. Greg is a regular presenter of professional development activities for teachers, particularly in facilitating inclusion for students with disabilities in mainstream settings.

Greg's research interests include self-organising systems, teacher professionalism, the degree to which inclusive education is implemented in the classroom, perspectives on inclusive education as a social justice issue and Indigenous education issues.

Greg has diverse research interests in particular centred on both preservice and practicing teachers developing their capacity for meeting the needs of diverse learners in mainstream settings. Much of this research focuses on using complexity theory and self organising systems theory to inform the design of courses and subjects in tertiary settings.

Greg’s further research interests lie in working with the Charles Sturt University School of Teacher Education PRAC (Programming, Relationships and Communication) team to enhance the skills base of undergraduate teachers
