My teaching traces processes and practices of policy formation within a devolved UK with a particular emphasis of health in Wales. It also draws on multi-disciplinary perspectives to understand the experience of addiction (to substances or behaviours) for individuals and to enable students to critically engage with what it means to recover from addiction.

Llywodraethiant: Iechyd a Lles

My innovative module on Governance in Health and Welfare was introduced in 2016. It examines policy and practice by focusing on key concepts such as responsibility, civil society, the 鈥渉ollowing out of the state鈥�, partnership, public participation, the valorization of 鈥榓ctive citizenship鈥� and the use of targets and incentives to drive practitioner behaviour.

The Addicted Body/Y Corff Caeth 鈥� co-authored with Dr. Paul Carre

Using contemporary theories of the Body including phenomenology and governmentality, this module examines a range of addictions. It considers both the experience of embodiment and the symbolic role of the body in society as a means to discuss the emergence and experience of conditions as diverse as drug and alcohol addiction, anorexia, web addiction and sex addiction. It also introduces the biomedical and biopsychosocial understandings of addiction and recovery and uses Boudieusian theory and ethnographic methods to understand to cultural and social context of addictive behaviour and the living conditions that are, in part, created by the drug business and the policy interventions it attracts it within specific localities.

Dissertation (3^rd year)Module Coordinator

听

All undergraduates within the School of Social Science currently prepare a dissertation during years 2 and 3. While all students are matched with a supervisor who will meet with them regularly to offer advice and feedback, the choice of subject is open and students are expected to develop their work largely independently. As module coordinator for the Welsh medium dissertation module I prepare a series of workshops that seek to teach students to carry out independent research. These include teaching on forming and developing a research question, collecting and analysing data together with advice on preparing the final draft.

PhD Supervisions

My current supervisions include an ethnographic study of disability and work within a family network (Williams), a biographical study of carers鈥� identity and concepts of person-centredness, the experiences of Welsh-speaking stroke patients in terms of treatment and support (ap Gruffydd) and the cultural context of popular music choices in two generations in Gwynedd (ap Rhisiart). 听

I have a long-term interest in the cultural and social context of decision making in Health and Social care that dates back to my Masters鈥� dissertation on Somali women and maternity services (see publication list). More recently I have used a Bourdieusian framework to understand choices such as vaccination and sexual health decision making (see also supervisions). 听I am currently interested in the experience of 鈥榣iving policy鈥� among those who are subject to such as welfare recipients, young mothers and mothers as healthcare and childcare decision makers (see current research projects). I also contribute to collaborative work that assesses how Governments position themselves in relation to concepts such individual and collective responsibility, equality, rights and 鈥榲alue for money鈥� through the discourse analysis of key policy documents.听

• Expectations on Higher Education providers to monitor their enhancement and compliance activities are diverging across the UK with major implications for the management of partnerships. The Office for Students has consulted on minimum standards and proposes new quality definitions to replace the UK Quality Code. No such changes will be mandatory in Scotland and Wales where it is likely that institutions will continue to work to a more wide-ranging enhancement approach.

  Speakers from across the UK will outline models for monitoring enhancement within and across partnerships and provide expect perspectives on the future of enhancement. They will also consider implications for a single UK-HE brand in transnational education.

  Academic quality enhancement in TNE 鈥� present and future

  The University of Sunderland has for many years successfully used adaptable franchise models for TNE, involving close cooperation between on-campus and partner-based academics and an overall approach closely aligned to the QAA Quality Code. This talk will explore how these existing approaches to quality monitoring, support and partner engagement are being rethought in response to radical changes proposed by the English regulator, the Office for Students.

  2.30 pm

  Prof Oliver Turnbull, DVC 香港六合彩挂牌资料

  Learning from our mistakes: an enhancement approach from Wales

  Setting up and maintaining partnerships is a complex and challenging exercise. This talk offers five pieces of hard-won advice, with particular reference to the Welsh sector and TNE. We鈥檝e made the mistakes, so you don鈥檛 have to! The suggestions reflect some advice about: setting up good systems at the initial phases; assigning manageable tasks to responsible people; building in good governance; taking advantage of what might be described as 鈥楥eltic鈥� approaches to regulation; and finally, the advantages of Celtic approaches to quality enhancement. Partnerships can be a difficult to set up and maintain, but can also be rewarding, and the talk ends with a brief list of the positives, for both staff and students.
