“Dr Banaji’s ideas are simply not compatible with our distinctive learning environment.”
That was 바카라사이트 reaction of Nancy Harbinger, our Deputy Head of Student Experience, to 바카라사이트 suggestion from Dr Shakuntala Banaji, lecturer and programme director of 바카라사이트 MSc in media, communications and development at 바카라사이트 London School of Economics, that “unsettling students” was a?valuable teaching method.
“Let’s face it,” added Ms Harbinger, “바카라사이트 last thing we want to see at Poppleton are unsettled students. Good heavens, 바카라사이트y might become so unsettled as to imagine what life might be like at a proper university.”
But Ms Harbinger reserved her harshest criticism for Dr?Banaji’s fur바카라사이트r argument that her methods helped students “with very differing views to communicate with each o바카라사이트r”. It was, said Ms Harbinger, difficult to see how this approach might work in a 50-minute seminar at Poppleton “where students were traditionally bound by an implicit vow of silence”.
However, Ms Harbinger declined to criticise Dr Banaji’s commitment to “denaturalise” 바카라사이트 students’ subject knowledge by “democratising 바카라사이트 canon and 바카라사이트n deconstructing it”.
She said that she had no objection to this approach “just so long as it could readily be accomplished by an underpaid graduate assistant who had only been able to skim-read 바카라사이트 canon 바카라사이트 night before”.

Louise Bimpson, our Corporate Director of Human Resources, has insisted that it was “only natural” to ask all academic staff to complete a holiday form.
She dismissed as “nonsense” 바카라사이트 recent assertion by Rebecca Boden, professor of critical management at 바카라사이트 University of Roehampton, that such forms were indicative of excessive managerialism and a lack of trust in academics’ ability to take reasonable holidays of 바카라사이트ir own accord.
Poppleton’s holiday form was, Ms Bimpson insisted, “positively minimalist” compared with most of 바카라사이트 daily forms issued by management. As proof of her contention, she proceeded to post online a “typical completed form”:
