In this third installment of the SoTL flavoured TELSIG podcast, Phil is joined again by Lucy Turner Voakes from York's Academic Practice team, and Nick Glover from Inclusive Learning to discuss equality, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) in higher education and its interactions with SoTL. The conversation explores the catalysts for heightened attention on EDI, such as award gaps for black students, the interplay between broader social issues and higher education, and the importance of data-driven approaches. We talk about the barriers to implementing inclusive practices, the role of scholarship, and the complexities of measuring success. The discussion also touches on the potential benefits of partnerships between students and staff in fostering a more inclusive educational environment.
