LITE Incubators
As part of our five year strategy to foster student education success for all, we’re developing themed LITE Incubators to develop research in strategic areas. The Incubators will encourage and develop collaborative research, providing a playground where professional services, technical, research and academic staff, students and teams can work in partnership on long-term projects within each incubator to create real change in student education.
We have recruited an Incubator Lead for each strand, on a 0.2 FTE contract. They will develop and curate multidisciplinary pedagogical research (PedRes), discipline-based education research (DBER) and scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL) within their strand.
The LITE Incubators and their Leads are:
- Assessment: Katie Carpenter
- Feedback: Alba del Pozo García
- Active and Experiential Learning: Alexandra Holmes & Clare Tweedy
- Inclusive Education and Belonging: Jenny Brady
- Digital and Open Education: Antonio Martínez Arboleda
We have also recruited LITE Strategic Leads, who each have a remit which carries across the incubators. They will work to make sure that their portfolios are embedded in the research activity of all the LITE Incubators. The remits and their Leads are:
- Students as Partners in PedRes: Tao Jiang
- Student Futures and Educational Gain: Bee Bond
