How inviting student participation can direct changes to STEM courses

Discover how deputy vice chancellor of Edinburgh Napier University, Nazira Karodia, has led the charge to decolonise chemistry and other STEM courses at the University of Wolverhampton. She has led a three-stage research project addressing not only decolonisation, but also other known diversity issues such as gender, sexual orientation, disability and socio-economic background. Nazira and her research team have done all they can to ensure changes are informed by STEM students’ lived experiences under current course content, teaching and learning practices. Students have been invited to share their views via online diaries, discussion and focus groups. Read the story to find out more about this project and the plans for the future.
