MAPS Education Research & Innovation Seminar: Neil Williams (University of Kingston)
Kingston University developed an Inclusive Curriculum Framework to help address awarding gaps. The framework adopts three key principles fundamental to creating and delivering an inclusive curriculum to: Create an accessible curriculum; Enable students to see themselves reflected in the curriculum; Equip students with the skills to positively contribute to and work in a global and diverse environment. In 2013/4 the BAME awarding gap for the Faculty of Science Engineering and Computing was 18.4%, by 2018/9 this had been reduced to 4.1%. In this presentation a range of university, faculty and programme level actions taken to help reduce degree and module award gaps are covered. These include the implementation and impact of Undergraduate Research Internship scheme, the development of a Support for Academic Progression programme, greater use of active learning methods and a review of assessment.
