Research and Publications

This page will develop further as we write more about the project and develop the research and evaluation projects as we move into the second year of the project.

Writing

A series of blog posts on the project has been started on the Asociation of Learning Technologists blog.

• The first published in January discusses generating inclusive images to represent students.
• The second publish in July discusses the langauge used in developing and delivering inclusive digital assets.
• The third published in September discusses how the personae can be used to highlight and discuss disability, visible or otherwise.

A piece on stereotypes based on prior research and developed to aid the project development was published on the WonkHE blog in June.

Conferences

A presentation on using inclusive personae in curricula was presented at the UEL teaching symposium in January 2024

The StudentShapers project on auditing curricula for inclusive practice was presented as a poster at the Advance HE EDI conference in March.

Two presentations on the project were delivered at the RAISE conference in September 2024. One presentation in collaboration with a colleague at the University of Manchester working on more inclusive images for medicine and human anatomy.
