Rob got grabbed by philosophy for children when he was an undergraduate student in philosophy in Australia. He spent 10 weeks at the IAPC working with instructors in schools, and together with teachers in elementary and high schools worked with the program in Western Australia for three and a half years. He was the inaugural director of the Program in Science, Technology, and Society at the University of Alberta, and currently leads the What Sorts Network, a team of researchers and community activists organized around the question "What sorts of people should there be?"
