## Resource

In the latest episode of LITE Bites, Robert Averies is joined by Andrew Kirton (Philosophy) to reflect on his recently completed LITE Fellowship: 'Removing dominance and gatekeeping in higher education'. Andrew's research set out to explore how academic standards and disciplinary norms might be 'opened up', challenged, and owned by students - rather than imposed upon them. He reflects on his Fellowship journey, the role of philosophy in pedagogical inquiry, and the lesser explored relationship between higher education and learning to drive! You can read more about Andrew's LITE Fellowship here , and explore other LITE Fellowships here .
