Department Name: Education, Practice & Society
Abstract
The last two generations have seen a remarkable world-wide transformation of higher education (HE) into a core social sector with continually expanding local and global reach. Most nations are moving towards, or have already become, 'high participation' HE systems in which the majority of people will be educated to tertiary level. In the UK HE is at the same time a pillar of science and the innovation system, a primary driver of productivity at work, a major employer and a mainstay of cities and regions, and a national export industry where 300,000 non-EU students generated over £7 billion in export-related earnings for the UK in 2012-13. In 2012, 60 per cent of UK school leavers were expected to graduate from tertiary education over the lifetime, 45 per cent at bachelor degree level, compared to OECD means of 53/39 per cent. Higher education and the scientific research associated with universities have never been more important to UK society and government. HE is large and inclusive with a key role in mediating the future. Yet it is poorly understood. Practice has moved ahead of social science. There has been no integrated research centre dedicated to this important part of the UK. The Centre for Engaged Global Higher Education (CEGHE), which has been funded initially for five years by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC), now fills that gap.
On behalf of the ESRC CEGHE conducts and disseminates research on all aspects of higher education (HE), in order to enhance student learning and the contributions of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) to their communities; develop the economic, social and global engagement of and impacts of UK HE; and provide data resources and advice for government and stakeholder organisations in HE in the four nations of the UK and worldwide. CEGHE is organised in three closely integrated research programmes that are focused respectively on global, national-system and local aspects of HE. CEGHE's team of researchers work on problems and issues with broad application to the improvement of HE; develop new theories about and ways of researching HE and its social and economic contributions; and respond also to new issues as they arise, within the framework of its research programmes. An important part of CEGHE's work is the preparation and provision of data, briefings and advice to national and international policy makers, for HEIs themselves, and for UK organisations committed to fostering HE and its engagement with UK communities and stakeholders. CEGHE's seminars and conferences are open to the public and it is dedicated to disseminating its research findings on a broad basis through published papers, media articles and its website and social media platform.
CEGHE is led by Professor Simon Marginson, one of the world's leading researchers on higher education matters with a special expertise in global and international aspects of the sector. It works with partner research universities in Sheffield, Lancaster, Ireland, Australia, South Africa, Netherlands, China, Hong Kong SAR, Japan and USA. Among the issues currently the subject of CEGHE research projects are inquiries into ways and means of measuring and enhancing HE's contribution to the public good, university-industry collaboration in research, the design of an optimal system of tuition loans, a survey of the effects of tuition debt on the life choices of graduates such as investment in housing and family formation, the effects of widening participation on social opportunities in HE especially for under-represented social groups, trends and developments in HE in Europe and East Asia and the implications for UK HE, the emergence of new HE providers in the private and FE sectors, the future academic workforce in the UK and the skills that will be needed, student learning and knowledge in science and engineering, and developments in online HE.

Planned Impact
The Centre for Engaged Global Higher Education (CEGHE) will conduct research designed to transform our understanding of higher education (HE) in its economic and social contexts. In the public and connected environment in and around HE, CEGHE's research and findings will interest government and policy makers, public agencies, stakeholder organisations in HE, associated sectors (e.g. employers and professions), HEIs, the media and public, international agencies such as the OECD, and many HEI leaders and policy makers-throughout the world.
The main strategy to achieve ongoing impact is CEGHE's structured collaborations with Associated Organisations (AOs). At second stage submission the AOs included GuildHE, Higher Education Academy, Higher Education Policy Institute, Institute for Public Policy Research, National Centre for Universities and Business, National Union of Students, Social Market Foundation, Society for Research into Higher Education, Times Higher, Universities and College Union, Universities UK, Universities UK International Unit, Which?, and WonkHE. If CEGHE is funded more AOs may sign, including public HE agencies. The majority of the CEGHE Advisory Board (chaired by Professor Sir Robert Burgess) will be AOs,
AOs can be engaged in every stage: project design; on project committees; in preparing benchmarks for assessing impact; as participants in some data collection; and providing critical feedback on draft papers and the preparation of materials for different audiences. The release of findings will be double- or multi-badged with AOs and they will share the seminar programme and leadership of CEGHE conferences. In turn they will gain access to CEGHE research findings, influence the applications of the research, and position themselves effectively in subsequent national discussion. By working with CEGHE 'in the kitchen' they will be better placed to use its outputs. The AOs will enhance CEGHE's sensitivity to HEIs, policy makers and interest groups, and trigger many new initiatives in research and applications. They will be an invaluable source of informed comment at every stage of CEGHE's work. In addition, some organisations such as HEA have major data repositories of their own that may be accessible for CEGHE research purposes.
For policy makers and government, CEGHE will offer evidence-based data across a range of key issues in HE, and scope to enter a research based public discussion on an informed basis. Some projects will be of immediate policy interest, e.g. research on the growing private sector in HE, a data-based study of relations between financing and participation, a survey comparing graduates with and without debt, and the comparative international metrics on HE-industry engagement. CEGHE will prepare the ground with policy makers using selective briefings, and release main project findings at public events, engaging government ministers and officials. CEGHE's capacity to impact policy and government through research will often depend on the prior reception of its findings among stakeholders and in the media and public discussion. Media-significant data are more likely to gather public impact and shape policy thought. CEGHE will focus closely on media as this is the best way to reach large numbers of stakeholders. The Times Higher, one of the AOs, will co-sponsor seminars and conferences, and provide a principal medium for publicising outcomes and building stakeholder involvement.
CEGHE will sustain a seminar series in each Research Programme, combined 'Key Debates in HE' seminars and Early Career Researcher seminars, and three conferences, involving stakeholders and policy makers. Events will be held across UK including partner universities of Sheffield and Lancaster. The CEGHE website will be an ESRC research shop front for UK HE; continuously updated, it will be the Centre's point of dissemination and public data exchange, and a broad source of information about UK Higher Education.

| Description | While technically, this phase of CGHE's work (ES/M010082/1) is over, there is a direct continuity between this first phase of the work which was done while CGHE was housed at UCL prior to 1 January 2019, and the following phase with CGHE at Oxford (ES/M010082/1). There is also a less complete but still very substantial continuity with the work done in the Transition Centre phase (ES/T014768/1) which is less than half complete in March 2022. This makes retrospective reporting of outcomes and impacts impossible at this stage - the work is largely ongoing and academic outputs will peak in the coming period. It is for this reason we say below 'the award is still active'. The majority of CGHE projects are at data analysis or academic writing stage in 2022. Findings up to now have been preliminary in nature but over the next 12 months final findings will emerge. Some examples of key findings are noted under 'Narrative Impact' below. Further developments of ongoing significance are apparent. For example, in CGHE project 1.1/Transition Centre project 8, a heuristic has been developed that provides a basis for future empirical research recoding the individual and collective contributions ('impacts') of higher education institutions and systems. Arising from the work done in CGHE project 2.5 the CGHE researchers completed the modelling and system design underpinning Colombia's new system of income contingent loans, legislated in late 2021. |

| Description | The ESRC/HEFCE Centre for Global Higher Education commenced on 12 November 2015, was funded for a five year period (2015-2020), with a six month no cost extension to 30 april 2021, and 16 listed ESRC-supported projects. In addition, it completed four small-scale projects funded within University College London, a project supported by the British Council, and one project for the former Department of BIS (now BEIS). Of the 16 ESRC supported projects, five began early in the Centre's life but the majority did not commence until the second half of 2016, and one (that related to Brexit and Higher Education, separately reported) in 2017. It is too early to report on final project findings from any of the 16 ESRC-supported projects, or on the specific impact of these findings en bloc, for the reasons given under 'Key Findings'. However, it is apparent from the entries in Research Fish that CGHE's projects have generated a significant number of Working Papers (including preliminary research foundation papers, literature reviews and findings papers), conference papers, CGHE seminar papers and journal papers that have been reported separately to ESRC. One report has been completed on request for the then UK government department BIS, a comparative study of private sector higher education provision in six countries, and a book length monograph concerning European universities and Brexit, with ten national case studies, has been published. Four monographs have been published in the Bloomsbury Higher Education Research series, one containing 17 chapters directly relating to the projects, and there are five further books contracted and in various stages of production. Another book summarising outcomes from a CGHE project was published in South Africa. The Centre has been highly productive in relation to engagement with the users of research on higher education, including policy makers, facilitated by its regular Policy Briefings and Working Papers, and a growing number of meetings with government departments, HEFCE, Office for Students, Select Committees of the Parliament, OECD and others. CGHE's researchers have a large number of partnerships and collaborative projects between them. In addition to many academic publications, including more than 35 authored or edited books, they have generated numerous commentaries, blogs and other media coverage. Most have been involved directly in policy making processes in higher education, as the evidence in Research Fish attests. CGHE from its beginning has been focused on building impact, which is seen as something that should occur during the life of the research as well as after its completion. CGHE is building impact in two ways. First it has created a consultative structure with policy makers in higher education, public agencies, national education organisations, the higher education institutions, and other potential users of its research. Several stakeholders and research user organisations are members of the CGHE Advisory Board. There are 19 Associated Organisations signed up with CGHE, such as Universities UK, the Alliance and the National Union of Students, with a commitment to assist in future research output dissemination events, for example through jointly badged public events, and joint lobbying of government. Both UUK and the Alliance, especially, have taken an increasingly active role in cooperation with CGHE, for example on the Advisory Committees for CGHE and for the separate project on Brexit and UK higher education. In addition to the 19 Associated Organisations, Cooperation with the Association of Commonwealth Universities, and UNESCO Institute for Educational Planning, has also become significant i, and the CGHE Director and other CGHE researchers have spoken at numerous stakeholder conferences, seminars, workshops and other events in UK and abroad. Each of the 16 CGHE projects has a project committee which plays an advisory role throughout the duration of the research. Each project committee includes at least one person from a policy stakeholder such as HEFCE or a research user organisation such as UUK. Second, CGHE has advanced the public discussion of higher education issues, and public engagement in its research projects - thus preparing the ground for future impact generation around its research findings - in several ways: public conferences, weekly research seminars and occasional seminars and public discussion events, the many contributions of CGHE researchers to public media-based discussion of policy issues in higher education as listed in Research Fish under engagement, including articles, blogs and quotations, the live streaming of public conferences and seminars, public access to events through Youtube and Soundcloud, and an energetic social media presence. Times Higher has been especially important in covering CGHE events and drawing on the expertise of CGHE researchers for comment. |

We encourage authors from a range of disciplinary backgrounds to analyse higher education from fresh perspectives, including drawing on concepts and theories from other academic fields. Policy here is conceived as relevant to all areas of higher education activity, including transnational education, university governance and leadership, quality assurance and enhancement, academic work, curriculum development and student learning, occurring at the local, regional, national and international level. Comparative analyses across higher education systems are particularly encouraged. |

This evidence has contributed to a re-evaluation of financial support for low-income students, especially those wanting to pursue vocational pathways - and in particular the introduction of lifelong learning allowances which were recommended by the Augar Review.On 29 September 2020, the Prime Minister announced the government would introduce a flexible lifelong loan entitlement, as part of its lifetime skills guarantee and wider skills package. The commitment was confirmed in the government's much delayed 'interim conclusion' to Augar, and in the Further Education White Paper, published on 21 January 2021. |

| Impact | The Economist Intelligence Unit has devised a set of comparative indicators of national education system performance, in a large number areas. The Unit sought the advice of Simon Marginson as a critical friend in relation to indicator development. feedback and discussion was provided at three successive stages. this led to some modifications of the approach, particularly in relation to East Asian education systems. The data produced were published by The Economist and it is likely that they were widely utilised by policy makers across the world. this in turn is likely to contribute to improved service delivery in the education sector. |

| Description | Invovled in direct policy advice on student loan reform in Colombia leading to a change in government policy |
| Geographic Reach | South America |
| Policy Influence Type | Contribution to a national consultation/review |
| Impact | Bruce Chapman and Lorraine Dearden are two of the world's leading experts on higher education student funding and specifically, income-contingent loans. Bruce Chapman devised the Higher Education Contribution Scheme (HECS) in Australia introduced in 1989, which continues to be the main form of student financial support in Australia. Lorraine Dearden is one of the world's leading econometric modellers of student loan effects and also an associate of the Center for Global Higher Education. As a result of their expertise, they have been invited to Colombia on several occasions to advise the government and other stakeholders on reforms of their student funding system and to give keynote presentations about income contingent loans in Bogotá, Cartagena, and Medellín. Testimony in March 2018 from Professor Roberto Zarama, Professor of Universidad de los Andes-Bogota, Academic Director of Ceiba: "Ceiba is a Colombian non for proftt organisation. The associates of Ceiba are the seven most prestigious Colombian universities. These universities produce 80% of the articles written by Colombian researches that are indexed in the Web of Science. Ceiba has been working on the design of innovative financing systems for tertiary education. The results of this research has been used by the Minister of Education for the design of laws. In this work Ceiba has had the fortune of having the guide and advise of Professor Bruce Chapman of the Australian National University and Professor Lorraine Dearden of the University College London. With their invaluable support we advice the Colombian government to introduce a change in the loan system that the country has had since 1952. Due to their support we visited Australia to see the system of Income Contingent Loans. Then we has the experience to see a comparative study of different systems in the world. We also had the opportunity to hear their participation in different workshops in different cities in Colombia. They deliver their presentations in Bogotá, Cartagena, and Medellín. Professor Chapman has visited several times the country and has guided us on how to change the system. The main result of his work in Colombia is the new law that is in process of being approved in parliament. There is only one debate left for the new system to be approved. In Colombia any new law requires four debates. The new system is the funding of tertiary education based on contingent loans. This new system has been approved in the first three debates. Colombia will make a big change due to the support of Professor Chapman." |

| Impact | Professors Bruce Chapman and Lorraine Dearden are some of the world's leading experts in the design, costings and assessment of student loan schemes. Bruce Chapman devised the Higher Education Contribution Scheme (HECS) in Australia introduced in 1989, which continues to be the main form of student financial support in Australia. As a result of their expertise, both Professor Chapman and Dearden have been invited to Brazil on several occasions to advise the government and other stakeholders on reforms of their student funding system and to give keynote presentations about income contingent loans. Testimony in March 2018 from Mr. Paulo Nascimento, a research officer at the Institute for Applied Economic Research (IPEA), a think tank maintained by the Brazilian Federal Government: "Professors Bruce Chapman and Lorraine Dearden are highly specialised in the design, costings and assessment of student loan schemes. Their expertise has added substantial contributions to the student loan debate in Brazil, particularly in 2017 and 2018. The Brazilian federal government is reforming FIES, the large loan scheme designed to help low-income students financing tuition fees in private higher education institutions. FIES is a key policy, because three quarters of the enrolments in undergraduate programs are nested in private institutions in Brazil. Additionally, introducing cost sharing in the currently free-of-charge public sector has been a recurrent debate in the country. Through their publications as well as through their direct connections with Brazilian scholars and policymakers, Professors Chapman and Dearden have provided rich advice on converting FIES into an ICL scheme and eventually extending it to public institutions. This connection includes: (i) hosting at ANU in 2017 Mr Paulo Nascimento*, whose PhD research, supervised by Professor Chapman with important contributions from Professor Dearden and Associate Professor Timothy Higgins, is focused on ICL alternatives for a broad reform on higher education student financing in Brazil and is influencing FIES' reform process as well as contributing to the Brazilian debate on free-college provision; (ii) liaising with officials from the Brazilian federal government, who came to Canberra in December 2017 to learn about the HECS/HELP system with the Australian Department of Education and the Australian Taxation Office, discuss FIES' reforms with Professor Chapman, Professor Dearden and Associate Professor Higgins, and participate in an international seminar organised by Professor Chapman; (iii) participating as key facilitators in a workshop in Brazil to discuss FIES' reforms and prospects in higher education student financing with high officials and bureaucrats from the Brazilian federal government." |

| Impact | Testimony in March 2018 from Dr. Shiro Armstrong, Co-Director of the Australia-Japan Research Centre, Editor of the East Asia Forum: "The Japanese government is considering an income contingent loan scheme for financing higher education which came about from a research project over 12 months led by Professors Bruce Chapman and Lorraine Dearden. They led a research team in Japan that carefully considered Japanese labour market issues, the structure of the higher education sector and the institutional and policy context for the possible introduction of an income contingent loan scheme and how one might be designed for Japan. Their joint research with labour and education economists in Japan, anchored by the top economic policy think tank, the Japan Center for Economic Research, has led to workshops, conferences and public forums that has helped inform the debate, socialise the ideas with the academic and policy communities. Their work has produced research that will appear in the Economics of Education Review, opinion pieces in the top financial newspaper and engagement with the minister of education and his ministry. There has been innovation in design and modeling of an ICL due to Japan's labour market characteristics and large number of private universities." |

It now consists of a cross-HE and research community stakeholder expert group who advise the UK public research funders and charitable funders like Wellcome Trust on robust and responsible uses of research metrics in funding, assessment and management of research. The FRRM has a particular role with respect to the design of the next Research Excellence Framework, and has been advising HEFCE on how metrics should be used in this context. It also raises awareness and encourages higher education and research institutions to adopt best practices with regard to metrics usage, and a number of UK universities have now done so, developing policies and frameworks based on the Metric Tide, or similar statements like the San Francisco Declaration on Research Assessment. |

This is because VET encompasses skill development as well as innovation diffusion and applied research - which together can have a more direct impact on sustainable economic growth, especially of less developed regions. VET also contributes to addressing the demographic challenges which Europe faces, responding to the needs for re-skilling and up-skilling through non-formal training and at different levels of formal VET. |

| Impact | Since 2015, Professor Wilsdon has been the Vice-Chair of the International Network for Government Science Advice (INGSA), which he was instrumental in establishing with Sir Peter Gluckman (Chief Scientist to the Prime Minister of New Zealand) and others in 2014. INGSA exists to strengthen the interface between scientific evidence and expertise, policy and decision making in governments at all levels around the world. Now with over 4000 members, drawn from higher education and research organisations, governments and national academies, INGSA has its HQ in Auckland, regional chapters in Africa, Asia and Latin America, and a very active programme of meetings, capacity-building workshops, grants and policy work. With the support of UNESCO, Wellcome Trust, IDRC and others, it is rapidly becoming a major force in international debates about scientific advice and evidence-informed policymaking. Professor Wilsdon is at the heart of this and sits on INGSA's overall Steering Committee and Executive Board. Through the second half of 2017, he led the process of developing INGSA's "2030 Manifesto on Scientific Advice for the Global Goals", which will be published in its final form in June 2018. |

| Title | A framework for analysing private and public goods in higher education |
| Description | The innovation is a theoretical development in political science, as applied to the study of higher education. It consists of a matrix-based analytical system which combines the two principal theoretical distinctions between public and private goods - the market/non-market distinction, and the non-state/state distinction. By using one distinction on the vertical axis and the other on the horizontal axis, the resulting analytical scheme leads to four distinct political economies. Applied to the study of higher education and research, this enables us to more precisely identify the type of production and of good that is produced, and their limits and possibilities in each case. Particular national systems, institutions, programmes and activities in higher education and/or research can be located in one of more of the quadrants and the balance of activity between quadrants is also explanatory. |

| Title | Community-Based Research: Getting Started |
| Description | The MOOC is designed for professionals and researchers working in communities in challenging contexts, especially with migrant and refugee populations and their host communities. The course runs for 3 weeks, covering the aims, methods, and practicalities of carrying out community-based research, especially with disadvantaged communities, providing a total of 12-15 hours of study, and is planned to run 2-3 times per year. It is free and open to all on both platforms. The English version makes full use of the social learning functionality in the FutureLearn platform, and the translation into the Arabic version emulates all the same functionality as far as possible within the Edraak version. This is probably the first time a course has run simultaneously in two languages, on two platforms. The course is designed to engage researchers and professionals in a range of discipline areas in exchanging and debating the methods of CBR and the particular sensitivities that must be addressed, especially in communities that are disadvantaged, vulnerable, or living with extreme stress or trauma. The two versions enable us to compare two very different demographic groups - one from the wider global English-speaking digital world, and the other from Arabic speakers in the MENA region. The aim is to research the extent to which the co-design approach to development and adaptation of the course enables these communities of practice to develop into community knowledge-building communities, and what features have most impact on its sustainability in the longer run. |

| Impact | Over 3,000 participants have engaged actively with at least one activity within the course over its first run on the two platforms. Impact will be assessed via platform data, surveys, analysis of contributions in discussions and the assignment, and selected interviews. This is the first instance in the world of a course being developed in collaboration with professionals in two countries, and running simultaneously on two platforms in two languages, with educators working across the two languages, and uniting the two groups in a synchronous webinar as part of the course activity. The evaluation will use platform data and surveys to analyse the comparison between the two groups, and the effectiveness of this model for supporting community based research for professionals in universities, NGOs and international development organisations. |

| Title | Methological improvements in measuring student loan repayment burden |
| Description | Professors Bruce Chapman (ANU) and Lorraine Dearden (UCL), and Dr Dung Doan (ANU), are members of the CGHE are currently engaged in empirical research to improve the measurement of student loan repayment burden. Over the last 30 years international higher education financing reform has been underway which involves the adoption of income contingent loans (ICL), most often to replace the usual form of higher education financing involving time-based repayment loans (TBRL). The essential difference concerns debt collection: an ICL is repaid if and only when debtor's income in a particular period exceeds a threshold level, but with a TBRL repayment obligations are set over a fixed period of time. ICL reform began in an international context in Australia in 1989, and ICLs have since been adopted in about 10 additional countries. A very significant methodological and empirical focus of what we have been, and are currently, engaged in, relates to calculations associated with potential repayment difficulties for relatively low income student debtors in TBRL systems, such as those in, for example, the US, Canada and Colombia. This relates to the concept of a "repayment burden" (RB), which is measured as the proportion of a debtor's earnings required to repay a student loan. RBs are critical to the policy debate concerning comparisons of ICL and TBRL, since for ICL this proportion is set by law. In Hungary, Australia, England, and New Zealand, for example, the maximum RB is six, eight, nine, and twelve percent of debtor's earnings. However, since TBRLs require fixed repayments over a set period of time, RBs can vary widely among debtors as well as over a debtor's lifetime simply because of earnings variation. There are several reasons that RBs might be critical to the welfare of debtors. One is that high RBs must result in consumption hardship since at some point purchases of goods and services must be decreased or postponed in order to meet debt repayment obligations. A second and related concern is that even if income is high enough to accommodate the loan repayment obligation in a given period the possibility of future consumption hardship given an unanticipated fall in income would give rise to stress and anxiety. Finally, in the event of persistently very high RBs, some debtors will be forced to default on their loans and this results in a loss of credit reputation and thus future access to other commercial borrowings. A burgeoning pool of research, much of it emanating directly or indirectly from the CGHE, has reported RBs under TBRLs in various countries and consistently reported that this traditional form of student loan creates excessive burdens to low-income debtors. Those in the bottom 20 percent of the graduate income distribution need about 40 percent to above 100 percent of their earnings to service their student debts in any given period. This has been found to be the case for example, in the US (Chapman and Dearden, 2017 and Barr et al., 2017), Ireland (Chapman and Doris, 2017), Japan (Dearden and Nagase, 2017) and South Korea (Doan, 2017). Yet some puzzles arise in interpreting the RB experience of many countries' loan systems, one being that since major repayment difficulties seem to be commonplace, why is it that loan defaults appear to be significantly lower than should be expected from our RB calculations? This is our major motivation in exploring the measurement and interpretation of contemporary RB calculations. Conventionally RBs are measured as the proportion of the debtor's income required to meet repayment obligations when they are due. It is simple to calculate, easy to interpret, and free from bias of debtor's subjective perceptions; it is a convenient tool to gauge the extent of potential difficulties associated with the burden to repay student debts. But its use and interpretation imposes some critical restrictive assumptions; it is in the relaxation of these assumptions that we seek to add value to the student loan policy debate. We plan on exploring the limitations of RBs by raising issues related to the calculation of both the repayment obligations and debtor's resources to meet them. There are four basic limitations inherent in the use of (1) as a measure of the difficulty associated with repaying student debt: (i) the measure assumes that there are no within-household transfers of both debt obligations and income, (ii) the measure assumes that labor income is the only resource available for debt repayment, (iii) the measure ignores the fact that part of the debtor's resources must be allocated to living costs, and, (iv) because the measure is a point-in-time calculation, no account is taken of dynamic forces specifically related to changes of income over time. Empirical research has already been conducted by Professors Bruce Chapman (ANU) and Lorraine Dearden (UCL), and Dr Dung Doan (ANU), and will be reported at the 2018 Annual Conference of the Centre for Global Higher Education in London in April 2018. |

| Impact | The research on dynamics estimation of life-time income of graduate debtors by Professor Lorraine Dearden has shown that failing to account for mobility across income group over a graduate's lifetime could significantly underestimate his/her earnings. Preliminary results on new measures of repayment burden by Dr. Dung Doan show that the conventional measure might overestimate the difficulty associated with repayment time-based repayment loan. |
| Title | New measures of student loan repayment burden |
| Description | Conventionally the difficulty associated with repayment a debt is measured as the proportion of the debtor's income that is required to meet repayment obligation in a certain period of time. It is simple to calculate, easy to interpret, and a convenient tool to gauge the extent of potential difficulties associated with the burden to repay student debts. But its use and interpretation imposes some critical restrictive assumptions; it is in the relaxation of these assumptions that we seek to add value to the student loan policy debate. There are four basic limitations inherent in the measurement of debt obligations and debtor's resources to meet the repayment obligations when they are due. These limitations concern the intra-household allocation of resources and credit obligations, as well as the debtor's consumption needs. I am proposing 4 alternative measures of repayment burden to address these limitations. |

| Impact | The proposed measured will provide new tools to better assess the difficulty associated with student debt repayment and the impact of student loan on graduate debtors' welfare after they finish their studies. Preliminary results suggest that the proposed measures reveal that the repayment burden is much lower than previously thought in the literature. |

| Title | The Blended Learning Essentials program of MOOCs |
| Description | The BLE program consists of four courses, covering methods and applications of blended learning, running three times per year, and providing a total of 12 weeks of study in total. The courses are designed to make full use of the social learning functionality in the FutureLearn platform, to engage teaching professionals in exchanging and debating new approaches to the use of technology in different contexts of blended learning. We base the evaluation and research methods for investigation on Wenger et al's (2011) 'value creation methodology'. The platform data is then used to provide evidence of the following cycles of value creation: ? Immediate value: enrolments, pre- and post-course surveys, evidence of engagement and social interaction in the comments and other contributions, post-course interviews; ? Potential value: evaluations of own learning in post-course surveys, evidence of learning in comments, evidence of valuing downloadable learning resources and resource links in comments and post-course surveys; numbers of downloads; peer reviews (reports of learning from doing the assignment and performing a review as well as the assignment itself); ? Applied value: evidence of application from contributions in collaborative activities, e.g. to external tools like Padlet, Tricider, Googledocs; etc; peer review (content of assignment of an applied task and evidence of application of learning through conducting reviews as a principled critique); ? Realised value: surveys sent after MOOC completion; participants' own evaluations of effects on practice in blogs or social media or presentations at practitioner conferences); demonstrating the use of new tools and techniques by monitoring participants' behaviour (for example, if the MOOC was embedded in another course); ? Reframed value: observations of behaviours that build on course activity e.g. participants becoming a voluntary moderator, or a mentor, promoting the MOOCs, skills learnt or online/blended learning within their organisation, or achieving institution-wide policy changes to make the MOOC mandatory. The work has been reported in new publications now under review. |

| Title | The Learning Designer |
| Description | Improved, updated, more secure, and faster version of the Learning Designer tool (see other research tools), now hosted by UCL-ISD to cope with larger numbers and wider usage. The tool's website has been improved to show how it works and what its overall properties are. A new Analysis tab has been added, which gives the user-designer feedback on the elements of the design, in the form of pie-charts and bar charts derived from the amount of time the learner spends on different aspects of the design: the 6 learning types, whether online or not, whether the teach is present or not, whether it is asynchronous or synchronous, and whether they are working alone, in groups or in a class. The tool is online and open to all, and the designs users create are shared under the Creative Commons 4.0 (BY) license. The Learning Designer tool continues to attract users. At 010721 this stands at 1,900 per day over last 3 months It has had little promotion, due to lack of funding, but is used in a wide range of MOOCs, by mainly European universities, mainly for teacher professional development. The tool is also being linked directly to the ABC workshop run by UCL staff for university teachers at UCL and other universities, as the digital follow-on to a f2f workshop on learning design. A new and updated version of the tool is being developed through internal funding from UCL by the Information Services Division. |

| Description | The national data about student borrowing in the United States is contained in the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) controlled the the US Department of Education. This data has now been added to a nationally representative sample of students from the Beginning Postsecondary Study (BPS) of students entering college in 1996 and in 2004. We have taken the numerous NSLDS files and created a panel of 20 years of repayment history for the 1996 cohort, and 12 years of repayment history for the 2004 cohort. In addition, all the information about students contained in the BPS related to their pre-, during, and post-college activities has been matched to the repayment histories. By combining the pre-college, collegiate activities, with the repayment histories we can now what affects the occurrence of repayment (or not), the timing of repayment, and how events that happen during college affect repayment. To our knowledge, no one has ever put all this data together. |

| Title | Understanding Student Loan Repayment Burdens (Bruce Chapman, Lorraine Dearden and Dung Doan) |
| Description | 1 Introduction Professors Bruce Chapman (ANU) and Lorraine Dearden (UCL), and Dr Dung Doan (ANU), are members of the CGHE and are in CGHE Project 2.5. . 2 Repayment Burdens: The basic concept Over the last 30 years international higher education financing reform has been underway which involves the adoption of income contingent loans (ICL), most often to replace the usual form of higher education financing involving time-based repayment loans (TBRL). The essential difference concerns debt collection: an ICL is repaid if and only when debtor's income in a particular period exceeds a threshold level, but with a TBRL repayment obligations are set over a fixed period of time. ICL reform began in an international context in Australia in 1989, and ICLs have since been adopted in about 10 additional countries. A very significant methodological and empirical focus of what we have been, and are currently, engaged in, relates to calculations associated with potential repayment difficulties for relatively low income student debtors in TBRL systems, such as those in, for example, the US, Canada and Colombia. This relates to the concept of a "repayment burden" (RB), which is measured as the proportion of a debtor's earnings required to repay a student loan. RBs are critical to the policy debate concerning comparisons of ICL and TBRL, since for ICL this proportion is set by law. In Hungary, Australia, England, and New Zealand, for example, the maximum RB is six, eight, nine, and twelve percent of debtor's earnings. However, since TBRLs require fixed repayments over a set period of time, RBs can vary widely among debtors as well as over a debtor's lifetime simply because of earnings variation. There are several reasons that RBs might be critical to the welfare of debtors. One is that high RBs must result in consumption hardship since at some point purchases of goods and services must be decreased or postponed in order to meet debt repayment obligations. A second and related concern is that even if income is high enough to accommodate the loan repayment obligation in a given period the possibility of future consumption hardship given an unanticipated fall in income would give rise to stress and anxiety. Finally, in the event of persistently very high RBs, some debtors will be forced to default on their loans and this results in a loss of credit reputation and thus future access to other commercial borrowings. A burgeoning pool of research, much of it emanating directly or indirectly from the CGHE, has reported RBs under TBRLs in various countries and consistently reported that this traditional form of student loan creates excessive burdens to low-income debtors. Those in the bottom 20 percent of the graduate income distribution need about 40 percent to above 100 percent of their earnings to service their student debts in any given period. This has been found to be the case for example, in the US (Chapman and Dearden, 2017 and Barr et al., 2017), Ireland (Chapman and Doris, 2017), Japan (Dearden and Nagase, 2017) and South Korea (Doan, 2017). Yet some puzzles arise in interpreting the RB experience of many countries' loan systems, one being that since major repayment difficulties seem to be commonplace, why is it that loan defaults appear to be significantly lower than should be expected from our RB calculations? This is our major motivation in exploring the measurement and interpretation of contemporary RB calculations. 3 Repayment Burdens: Implicit assumptions underlying contemporary calculations. Conventionally RBs are measured as: L_it/Y_it (1) where L_it is the required repayment of student loan in period t for debtor i, and Y_it is debtor i's own labour income in period t. It is simple to calculate, easy to interpret, and free from bias of debtor's subjective perceptions; it is a convenient tool to gauge the extent of potential difficulties associated with the burden to repay student debts. But its use and interpretation imposes some critical restrictive assumptions; it is in the relaxation of these assumptions that we seek to add value to the student loan policy debate. We plan on exploring the limitations of RBs by raising issues related to both the numerator and denominator of equation (1). There are four basic limitations inherent in the use of (1) as a measure of the difficulty associated with repaying student debt: (i) the measure assumes that there are no within-household transfers of both debt obligations and income, (ii) the measure assumes that labor income is the only resource available for debt repayment, (iii) the measure ignores the fact that part of the debtor's resources must be allocated to living costs, and, (iv) because the measure is a point-in-time calculation, no account is taken of dynamic forces specifically related to changes of income over time. The issues to be examined relate to: The relevance of per capita (or adult equivalent scale) and total household repayment burden to account for the intra-household allocation of resources and debt obligations within the household - The inclusion of non-labour sources of income - The inclusion of consumption expenditure to maintain debtor's and their dependent's living; and - Taking account of, and measuring, dynamic lifetime income processes. Research has already begun in these areas (Dearden, 2017 and Doan, 2018). References Barr, N., B. Chapman, L. Dearden and S.

I am going to collect data from 1995 until 2015, with particular reference to European countries. Collection of funding agency is also foreseen to be collected, especially those related to the European Union. The purpose of the study is to plot the networks of collaborations between countries, especially at European level, and how they have changes over time. The possible influence of EU funding agencies will be tested to understand if and how the networks of collaborations have been changed due to specific schemes that substantially become relevant since 2007 onwards. Possibly, also UK based funding agencies will be considered. The specific database from which data will be collected is "InCite", which allows to download 50.000 record per time. Data are individual scientific articles with authors included. The names of the authors will be simply delated, making the dataset completely anonymous. |

| Sector | Academic/University |
| PI Contribution | Callender formed the collaboration with 2 academics one from the University of Vanderbilt and one now at Boston College as a direct result of giving a paper, at the University of Pennsylvania, about the findings of a study on student debt among prospective students. The US colleagues have used the same measures of debt aversion, developed by Callender in 2002, and used in the Callender and Mason 2015 study on debt in their US study of loan debt aversion among young people. We are currently in the process of writing a joint journal paper exploring attitudes towards debt and intentions to participate in HE among a broadly similar group of English and US young people in school - using the same measures of debt aversion. We have provided our US colleagues with our data from the English 2015 survey of potential HE students which they have merged their data from a similar US survey so that we can do this comparative US and English analysis. Thus we have created a unique English/US dataset. Callender is providing her expertise on student funding in England in the analysis and has written around a half of the the journal paper. |
| Collaborator Contribution | The researchers at the University of Vanderbilt and Boston College are providing us access to their data arising from their survey of young people for this comparative work. In addition, they are undertaking all the analysis of the merged English/US dataset, including modelling at no cost to us. Furthermore they will provide expertise on the US system of student funding in the analysis and write up of the paper. |
| Impact | The US colleagues are both economists, while Callender is a social policy analyst. Boatman, A., Callender, C. & Evans, B. (2022).

| PI Contribution | Researched, designed, developed, supported, and evaluated a 2-week, 8 hour course to support teachers in converting their classroom teaching to an online learning environment. |
| Collaborator Contribution | Our partners at LU collaborated on all stages of the course and helped to promote it within Lebanon. The Edraak platform also contributed by promoting it across the MENA region |
| Impact | The course attracted >47,000 enrolments to Dec 2020, from countries across the MENA region, many of them LICs. The Jordan Ministry of Education ran their own instance of the course for their teachers. Due to our collaboration with the Lebanese University over the last two years on a previous Edraak course, the academic staff have been learning about online learning and have understood its importance and value. The pandemic meant that many courses run by universities had to go online, and the University was well placed to do this. The course embeds the Learning Designer tool (ES/F042175/1) as a key element of the exercises in the course. The Lebanese University has been lobbying the Government to relax their refusal to recognise online degrees, and new legislation is now being considered by Parilament. These courses achieved capacity building impact in MENA and across the world, and conceptual impact by reframing the debates around the potential of online learning and MOOCs, especially at the Lebanese American University and Lebanese University, and our collaborating NGOs. We also changed the learning design orientation of Edraak (https://www.edraak.org) to incorporate social and collaborative learning into the platform now adopted across all their MOOCs, with >2m learners. |

| PI Contribution | This project is coordinated by Centre researcher Claire Callender. Professor Callender is working with John Thompson who used to work for HEFCE to examine the decline in entrants to part-time undergraduate study in England using HESA data provided by HEFCE. The aim of this research is: • to better understand the decline in entrants to part-time undergraduate study; • to assess to what extent it reflects a real reduction in the number of entrants, and • to identify the most likely causes of this reduction. This should enable us to assess the likely impact of future changes in policy, such as the increase in the number of subjects which will be exempt from equivalent or lower qualifications (ELQ) restrictions on student loans from 2017-18. It should also provide a foundation to develop other policies to halt or reverse the decline in part-time study. The study will also assess the contribution of part-time provision to reducing the discrepancies in the take-up of higher education between advantaged and disadvantaged social groups; that is to 'widening participation' policy. Claire Callender submitted the proposal to the Sutton Trust and is involved in all aspects of this study. She is working collaboratively with John Thompson in terms of defining the scope of the study and the analysis. She will play a central role in writing up, presenting and disseminating the findings of the research. |

| Title | MOOC for teachers in all sectors 'Blended and Online Learning Design' on FutureLearn |
| Description | This larger-scale online course brings to teachers in all sectors video exemplars and case studies, contributed by teachers from all sectors, illustrating ways of using blended and online learning within their courses. The online course employs the research-based tool developed at UCL Knowledge Lab, the Learning Designer, to enable teachers to adopt learning designs from others, which they can adapt, or create their own, receiving automated feedback on the nature of the learning experience they have designed. Teachers can share their design with others, for them to adopt and adapt. The course orchestrates two peer review activities where participants review each other's designs according to a give rubric. They may nominate their own or other's designs to be listed in the 'curated designs' section of the Learning Designer website. In this way, we begin to explore how well this community operates to develop collaborative community knowledge of how to teach online. This is a key focus of our CGHE2 research programme. Some 6,000 teachers are enrolled, from all sectors, and many countries. The course runs continuously for the first 6 months, prior to review. |
| Type Of Technology | Webtool/Application |
| Year Produced | 2021 |
| Impact | Some 8,900 teachers are enrolled, from all sectors, and many countries. By the end of its third run it received 71/84 (85%) 5-star reviews, many of them commenting on the value of the course and its tools and resources, for their work in developing online and blended learning. Registered participants can download all the resources in the course |

| Title | Teaching Online: Be Ready Now! |
| Description | The courses shows teachers how to plan for moving their classroom-based courses online, and use digital tools and resources to enable more active learning by their students. The course runs for 2 weeks and provides 10 hours of study as well as access to resources. Participants use videos, exercises, quizzes, discussions and peer review activities to share and exchange ideas and practices. The course runs on the Edraak platforms, in Arabic. It has attracted >46,000 participants, from across the MENA region. The course continues to run. |
| Type Of Technology | Webtool/Application |
| Year Produced | 2020 |
| Impact | The idea for the course arose from our previous collaboration with the Lebanese University, They wanted to help teachers with the process of moving their teaching entirely online. Based on our previous collaboration (see the Transforming Education...) we were able to work together online during lockdown, and within one month we were able to develop the course as a response to the pandemic emergency when all schools were closed. The course was very well received. In the post course survey, for example, 94% of the respondents said that the course changed the way they and their colleagues think or make future planning methods for online learning. And already, soon after the course, 49% reported that their students had benefitted from what they acquired on the course. The Ministry of Education in Jordan endorsed the course and adopted it for reference within their website. |

| Impact | The course was embedded within courses for teachers at the Lebanese University and the Lebanese American University, enabling a blended version to be taught for their masters and teacher training students. The collaboration also enabled us to establish strong links with colleagues in both universities, which has changed those universities' approach to the use of online learning. The Ministry of Education and Higher Education were kept close to our developments, and began to run their own workshops for their master teachers on the use of MOOCs. We have also been invited to run a workshop for teacher development by the Assistant Provost for Education at the Lebanese American University, In 2020 we were invited to rerun this online for their advanced teachers. Out of this collaboration with Lebanese University we also developed and MOU between our universities, and were then able to collaborate in rapid response to the pandemic to create a new emergency course for teachers - see output Teaching Online: Be Ready Now! |

Many such studies only model binary treatments (e.g., took Algebra II in high school or not) and the effect of that treatment on subsequent educational outcomes. This paper details how to model multivalued treatments (e.g., took Remedial Math, Algebra II, Calculus Iin high school) and multinomial outcomes (e.g., No College Attendance, Attend a Two-Year, Attend a Four-Year). To our knowledge, no one has previously done this. |

Feedback showed participants developed understanding and skills and were committed to implementing these in their practice as well as using the materials from the MOOC to train other teachers. Participants recorded some of their experiences in the video linked below. We will develop the design of the workshop as a model to implement in different contexts to facilitate participants' engagement in MOOCs. |

| Results and Impact | A blog summarising the research from the 'First in Family' work using Next Steps. We use 'Next Steps', a longitudinal sample of English children born in 1990, who entered sixth form in 2006. They were followed every year through their secondary schooling and again later in early adulthood at age 25. The longitudinal nature of the data allows us to control in a detailed way for the children's family background, income, and their prior attainment in order to isolate the association between parental education and their child's education. We find that: FiF young people make up 18 percent of a recent cohort in England, comprising nearly two-thirds of all university graduates Comparing individuals with no parental higher education, ethnic minorities and those with higher levels of prior attainment are more likely to experience intergenerational educational mobility and become a FiF Once at university, those who are FiF are more likely to study Law, Economics and Management and less likely to study other Social Sciences, Arts and Humanities than students whose parents are university graduates FiF students are less likely to study at and graduate from elite universities such as those belonging to the Russell Group, which are considered more prestigious, research intensive institutions FiF have a higher probability of not completing their degree, even after prior educational attainment, individual characteristics and socio-economic status are taken into account |

| Results and Impact | Professor Marginson will be joined by Professor Mary Stuart CBE, Vice Chancellor of the University of Lincoln and David Palfreyman OBE, the Bursar of New College Oxford and Director of the Oxford Centre for Higher Education Policy Studies (OxCHEPS). The book focuses on the forms of institutional governance that critically shape the culture, creativity and academic outcomes of higher education. It provides a new, updated and research based account of the changing face of the governance of British higher education. Historically, British universities were deemed amongst the most, if not the most, autonomous in Europe, with governance rooted in their collegial disciplinary structures. This assessment must now be decisively revised, although the belief systems deriving from it remain buried deep in university culture. The panel will discuss the investigation of the governance of higher education in the four UK nations and detail how global, national and system level pressures have changed the face both of the external governance of higher education institutions and how universities govern themselves. |

| Results and Impact | The session was presented by Simon Marginson at the Universities UK International Forum, 14 March 2018. As Brexit moves closer the uncertainty continues and the stakes for the higher education sector are mounting. Research funding, EU student tuition fees, European staff, initiatives beyond Europe - Brexit places tremendous pressure on university leaders, strategy planners and chief financial officers who must call the most likely scenarios and be ready with plans B and C. And the implications vary according to university mission, degree of exposure to Europe, and location in the UK. Drawing partly on ESRC-funded research currently being carried out at the Centre for Global Higher Education, this session explored not just the consequences of Brexit but university capacity, responses and initiatives under conditions that are both fast changing and utterly unprecedented. |

| Primary Audience | Public/other audiences |
| Results and Impact | The Burton R. Clark Lecture at UCL Institute of Education is a significant event in the global higher education calendar. In the May 2017 Lecture there were 100 people present, Livestream number was 101. There have been 154 YouTube plays. The event was live-tweeted with organic impressions of 5,539 over the course of the evening. The paper from the event received 248 downloads and 472 unique views on the CGHE website. Professor Hazelkorn is an expert on university ranking and that was her topic. Professor Hazelkorn's talk was divided into four parts. Part one reflected on her own journey, from looking at rankings as a phenomenon influencing university decision-making to being an instrument reflecting and driving competition at university, national, and global levels, as well as being a lens into globalised higher education. In the second part, Professor Hazelkorn considered two key dimensions which have helped reframe the relationship between higher education and the state: 1) the accountability agenda, and 2) the increasingly geopolitical nature of higher education. In the first instance, quality has become a contested concept. Since the late twentieth century, massification and globalisation began to alter the relationship between higher education and the state. The internationalisation of higher education, the growth of a global professional labour market, the increasing presence of for-profit and transnational providers, and the link between higher education and economic recovery has transformed quality from being institutionally led to driven and regulated by the state. As a consequence, notions of quality are now a critical part of the architecture of international higher education. In the second instance, as nations increasingly compete based on their knowledge and innovation systems, higher education is at the centre of geopolitical relations. It has been transformed from a predominantly social institution with a local or sub-national remit to being the cornerstone of economic policy, with geopolitical responsibilities. Universities and nations are measured against each other, highlighting comparative and competitive global advantages and disparities in capacity and capability, and reflecting a world order in flux. These developments coincide with and go some way to explain the rise of and fascination with global rankings.In part three, Professor Hazelkorn reflected on Clark's triangle of coordination. She briefly discussed what it tells us about higher education's relationship with/to the state and other policy actors, and then asked to what extent developments over the past decades change this model. Professor Hazelkorn concluded with some thoughts about the implications of this model for higher education today - especially in the context of recent political developments. We sit at a historic junction - one in which higher education has the opportunity and responsibility to play a critical role in (re)building a shared sense of societal purpose and identity. To be effective, higher education needs to move away from arguments of self-interest and victimhood. It needs to take a pro-active role - to reshape relations with its publics and the state, and re-orient itself qua an anchor institution alongside its students, staff and graduates, and the wider community, and qua an intellectual force to bridge the gap between local, national and global. |

| Results and Impact | Monday, 19 Nov 2018 09:30 - Tuesday, 20 Nov 2018 16:30 Southern Sun Newlands, Cape Town 7700, South Africa Conference topic: In what ways does South African undergraduate education have a transformative impact on people and society? What conditions are required for this impact to occur? What are the pathways from an undergraduate education to the public good? What are the implications of these pathways for policy makers, institutional managers, and higher education researchers and practitioners? This two day conference will explored answers to these questions that were developed through an ESRC-NRF funded project undertaken as part of the Centre for Global Higher Education. The project drew together a team of international and South African researchers. The distinctive contribution of this project was to bring together empirical evidence and conceptual debates across three domains of the higher education trajectory that are often considered in isolation: access to higher education, student experience, and graduate outcomes. The first day of the conference focused on the implications of the outcomes of the project for policy makers and practitioners and the second day will focus on the implications for researchers. Each day involved presentations of the outcomes from the project team followed by opportunities to explore their implications in small groups. The conference also marked the launch of an open-access edited book based on the outcomes from the project, which will be available to participants at the conference. |

In a context of competition for financial resources and prestige and where there are economical and epistemic asymmetries, international collaboration can be seen as problematic. This presentation focuses on international collaboration in the form of co-authorship of papers in the WoS and SciELO indexes on the topic of higher education reforms within and outside Latin America. Reflections about epistemic circuits and epistemic identities are offered. |

| Results and Impact | Seminar given at UCL Institute of Education by Davide Donina, University of Bergamo Seminar topic: In this seminar Dr Donina states that since the 1990s, reforms of managerial practices in higher education settings have been significant and far-reaching. Among the policy instruments targeted by the global higher education reform agenda there has been the central governance structures of universities, which are pivotal in increasing universities' social responsibility and in prompting their effective response to socio-economic challenges. Many studies analysed and compared the policy changes to central university governance structure, but only few have sought to examine the efficacy of these changes. In addition, the available studies about board composition, size, and structure provide inconsistent empirical evidence regarding the impact of board structure on organizational performance in both public and private organisations. Dr Donina work aims to fill into this literature stream and addresses this gap by investigating whether the characteristics of governing bodies influence innovation output measured as patent activity and spinoff creation. The research question addressed is therefore: Does the institutional governance model of the university affect innovation? |

| Geographic Reach | International |
| Primary Audience | Postgraduate students |
| Results and Impact | Seminar given at UCL Institute of Education by: Eileen Kennedy, UCL Institute of Education Diana Laurillard, UCL Institute of Education Seminar topic: Initial excitement about MOOCs was largely based on their capacity to recruit 10s of 1000s of participants. The MOOC platforms enabled massive cohorts of participants from outside of the university to engage with university teaching and research and the engagement could be tracked by the platforms themselves. However, it quickly became clear that MOOC participants differed markedly from the profile and patterns of engagement that characterise typical undergraduate students, and measures such as course completion, which might be meaningful for the evaluation of undergraduate courses, were less so in the context of MOOCs. To evaluate the success of a MOOC we need a new way to track the value that participants gain from taking part. Existing evaluation methods tend to focus on quantitative analysis of analytics from the platform, but these measures tell us little about the perceived value to participants. Moreover, since many MOOC participants are professionals, such as teachers or healthcare workers, and are undertaking continual professional development in MOOCs, we also need to track how they use their learning to impact the lives of others, such as students or patients, or in their own professional development activities, which can present challenges for evaluation. In this presentation Eileen Kennedy and Diana Laurillard will consider a mixed method approach that carefully examines different sources of evidence to show different types of value created on a MOOC. They present a MOOC value creation framework that can be used with the full range of professional development courses, to give a more rounded evaluation of the impact of MOOC initiatives. |

| Results and Impact | Dr Neil Harrison from University of Oxford gave a seminar at UCL IoE for CGHE. The conventional view has been that progression to HE is a risky pathway for disadvantaged young people in England, both financially and socially. However, even as the costs of HE have increased and the returns have become more questionable, demand from disadvantaged young people has counterintuitively risen. The nature of the youth labour market has changed, with greater precarity even as more jobs have become 'graduate', while a modest diversification of HE has made it appear somewhat more inclusive. This talk will argue that disadvantaged students increasingly view HE as a form of insurance rather than investment, with the risks of early entry into the labour market rising faster. |

| Results and Impact | Presentation by Krystian Szadkowski - Drawing on the results from the recent research on the idea of the public good in Polish higher education this paper addresses the culturally specific modes of constructing the public good and the common good by actors within the field. The concepts in question are often used interchangeably as they both express an extensive normative call. This presentation discusses the corrupted forms of the common good, its ethos-related, communal and material aspects against the empirical material to provide a clearer view of the differences between the understanding of the higher education as the common good and the public good. |

| Results and Impact | Presentation by Vikki Boliver, Durham University - In this seminar, Professor Vikki Boliver lays out the ethical case for reducing entry requirements for disadvantaged learners, arguing that fairness is best conceptualised in terms of distributive rather than procedural justice. Drawing on the findings of research projects funded by the ESRC and the Scottish Funding Council, she shows that entry requirements could be reduced significantly for disadvantaged learners without 'setting them up to fail', but that universities are often conflicted about reducing entry requirements given the prestige attached to admitting only high achievers who can be expected to succeed at university as a matter of course. |

| Results and Impact | Presentation by Dr Jana Bacevic, University of Cambridge - This talk explores the apparent paradox of critique in and of contemporary universities. In the past years, there has been no shortage of narratives and publications describe, interpret, and denounce what has been framed as the undue 'incursion' of economic and market-making logic into higher education. Despite the proliferation of these forms of critique, it seems as if academics have been powerless in stopping the neoliberal transformation of institutions of knowledge production, with sustained forms of resistance rare or completely absent. Drawing on the work of theorists like Luc Boltanski and Judith Butler, and author's research into the political economy of critique in UK higher education, the talk offers a sociological reading of the relationship between intellectual and political interventions in the current historical moment. |

| Results and Impact | Presentation by Michael Shattock and Aniko Horvath, UCL IOE - In 1992 the UK Government passed legislation which devolved the funding and management of higher education to Funding Councils in Wales and Scotland, leaving a new Higher Education Funding Council for England responsible for England (Northern Ireland had always been administered separately). In 1998 further legislation devolved large areas of government from Whitehall to Wales and Scotland and created new devolved governments, including one in Northern Ireland, all of which had powers of governance and funding over the institutions of higher education under their control. In a little over 25 years four separate national higher education systems have emerged with considerable divergencies from what once might have been seen as an English model. Indeed England can now look like the outlier when compared to the other three systems. The paper will describe and explore the changes that have taken place and assess the impact they have had on what had previously been a unified UK higher education system. |

While a range of host country conditions are considered, the policy environment does not feature prominently. Utilising a body of research on policy crisis management, this presentation analyses the implications of crises for changes in students' willingness to study in particular countries. Examples are drawn from crises relating to: the UK's exit from the EU; Indian students' safety in Australia; and discrimination against Chinese students in New Zealand. The three crises are categorised and compared and the implications of the comparison for scholarship and policy are examined. |

| Results and Impact | Dr Aline Courtois, University of Bath In both the UK and Ireland, campaigns were recently launched to increase the participation of local students in international mobility programmes, such as those offered under the Erasmus+ umbrella. These initiatives take particular significance in a context of graduate market congestion, and increased emphasis on employability as a mission for the higher education sector. How is the ideal 'mobile' student constructed through these national and institutional discourses? How do students respond to this emerging mobility imperative? Based on a two-year study conducted in Ireland, the paper draws on Bourdieu and Foucault to examine this apparent push towards mass participation in short-term exchange programmes. In particular, it examines the logics at play in institutional discourses and practices around outgoing student mobility, outlining how these align with dominant discourses promoting individualistic, voluntarist attitudes to labour (hyper)mobility over the life-course, and how students adapt to, resist or re-appropriate these expectations. |

| Results and Impact | Featuring research with Dr Shiona Chillas (University of St Andrews). The number of foreign academics in the UK has been increasing over the last forty years, and currently comprises a third of UK's academic profession (Lenihan and Witherspoon 2018). Existing research on migrant scholars, however, tends to focus on international careers and analyse mobility as a resource for career development and progression. Distinctively, our paper seeks to understand how the academic profession has responded to the influx of migrant scholars. We draw on the concept of social closure in the sociology of professions, and on empirical data from 62 semi-structured interviews with foreign-born academics working in 13 British universities. Findings show that academia has developed three social closure strategies - integration, exclusion and subordination - to control the absorption of migrant academics. The profession enacts these strategies to subtly regulate access, work and intra-professional relationships, selectively incorporating foreign-born academics and maintaining the status quo. The paper demonstrates nuances underlying the influx of migrant academics into the UK, suggesting that patterns of inclusion shape migrant scholars' working lives. |

This contribution re-examines the transnational circulation of policy schemes relative to Higher Education governance. It focuses on the relations between international and European organisations (Council of Europe, European Commission, OECD, UNESCO), characterised by competition followed by cooperation and international division of tasks. In order to explain the conditions under which higher education / knowledge policies circulate, we need to take into account not only the political and ideational positioning of these IOs but also the material aspects of their relationships. IOs appear as paradoxical arenas of knowledge circulation. Deemed as powerful and influent, they face unequal access to resources and uncertainty. While acknowledging their role as global players, I will stress their (inter)dependence and the multiple ways they struggle to maintain their position. |

| Geographic Reach | International |
| Primary Audience | Professional Practitioners |
| Results and Impact | Carolina Guzmán Valenzuela, University of Chile The Chilean higher education is characterised by unique features that make the concept of ´public' a multidimensional and fuzzy concept. Through an empirical study that involved interviews with academics and authorities from two public universities, the meanings attached to the production of 'public goods' by universities were examined. Findings show a certain similarity of meanings in relation to professional formation, knowledge production and the role of the university in promoting social equity and pluralism, although with different nuances. Also, the production of public goods is analysed in the light of the relationships between universities, the State and the market from which ambivalent meanings emerged. On the one hand, a naturalization of the idea of market in higher education appears and is contested by some academics, and on the other hand, academics are concerned that the State does not enlist public universities in the pursuit of a national agenda. Questions about the idea of the 'public' in relation to marketized contexts are discussed. |

| Results and Impact | Dr Miguel Antonio Lim, University of Manchester This seminar discusses how university ranking organisations generate and preserve their business models in higher education. It will consider how the rankings organisations and ranking editors interact with a variety of audiences through an analysis of their social media accounts. The analysis covers close to 13,000 social media entries from the Twitter account of the three 'best-known' international ranking organisations: the THE, the QS and the Shanghai ARWU. There is particular attention to the case of the Times Higher Education, which contributes the largest proportion of entries in the dataset, as an archetype of a ranking and educational consulting organization. The analysis is based on an earlier framework that aims to characterise rankers' 'weak expertise' (Lim, 2018) and will show how university rankers claim a demand for their services and how they respond to their critics. Through the analysis, the seminar contributes to the discussion around the increasing 'industrialisation' of university rankings and the development of ranking associated services including conferences and summits, data consulting, and brand management services.

| Results and Impact | Sally Hancock, University of York Internationally, governments have pledged to increase the number of PhD holders and support their transition into employment outside academia. These policies emerge from a commitment to the knowledge economy and human capital theory, which assert the necessity of knowledge-intensive labour to future prosperity. However, relative to the wealth of evidence on first-degree holders, understanding of the economic, social and cultural contributions of PhDs is considerably undeveloped. This study made use of the Destination of Leavers of Higher Education Longitudinal Survey (Long DLHE), which records employment circumstances three and a half years after graduation. Long DLHE data provide the most comprehensive record of PhD employment currently available in the UK. The analysis reveals that the vast majority of PhD holders will leave the academic sector after graduation. However, employment outcomes are highly variable by discipline. Significantly higher proportions of graduates from Russell Group universities, in scientific fields, secure research roles outside of academia, with prior qualifications and gender having some effect in these outcomes. The implications of these findings will be discussed, as well as the limitations of the DLHE dataset. It will be argued that there is a pressing need for richer demographic and decision-making data from PhD holders, along with a more extensive, longitudinal view of the careers they forge. |

| Results and Impact | Gill Wyness, UCL Institute of Education Stuart Campbell, Lindsey Macmillan, Richard Murphy and Gill Wyness This paper examines inequalities in the match between student quality and university quality using linked administrative data from schools, universities and tax authorities. We analyse two measures of match at the university-subject (course) level, based on student academic attainment, and graduate earnings. We find that students from lower socio-economic groups systematically undermatch for both measures across the distribution of attainment, with particularly stark socio-economic gaps for the most undermatched. While there are negligible gender gaps in academic match, high-attaining women systematically undermatch in terms of expected earnings, largely driven by subject choice. |

Our findings indicate that a variety of views of the public good value/contribution of higher education co-exist, which, in a context of reform, reflect various conceptions of the ways in which the principles and practices driving the French 'republican' model work or should work. |

Despite the striking differences, the public good is often used interchangeably with the common good in Polish higher education. This presentation discusses the legal and historical background of the emergence of the concept of the common good at the foundations of the constitutional order in Poland, contrasts it with the public good tradition and presents its consequences for the relationships between the state, the social and the higher education as seen from the perspective of the different actors (governmental, institutional, discipline-based) |

| Results and Impact | Marie-Agnes Detourbe, University of Toulouse A key feature of the 21st century is undoubtedly the increased flow of people across the world. Whether chosen or forced, these displacements have nurtured new forms of interconnectedness and opened new spaces. They have also led more traditional spaces to adjust. Higher education is a case in point: it can provide an array of answers to people experiencing chosen or unchosen displacement while taking hold of the specific challenges raised by their diversity. Across different nations however, the ability of HE systems and institutions to adapt to new forms of internationalization and widening participation has proved challenging, all the more so as immigration logics and language issues also come into play. The edited book presented at this GCHE seminar explores the three intertwined thematic perspectives of access to higher education, immigration and language issues under the cross-cutting theme of inclusion. Through a variety of approaches such as policy analysis, social network analysis, ethnography or bio narratives, the chapters offer multidisciplinary insights into the various barriers and opportunities which people on the move face when they try to access higher education in different national settings across the world. My talk will provide an analytical overview of those barriers and opportunities while putting into perspective the key role that HE can play in the sustained inclusion of people on the move. |

| Results and Impact | A seminar given at UCL IoE by Giulio Marini. Seminar topic: The topic of gender differences and career progression is high not only on the scholarly agenda, it is often discussed in the media as well - sometimes in quite controversial terms. We investigate this theme in Italy, a country that in recent years introduced a level of institutional autonomy in determining the career paths of academics. We provide analysis of census data about promotion to full professorship, looking at indicators of productivity, rank, age and prestige of an individual's department of affiliation. Our analysis also takes into account institutional performative indicators, which affect promotion probabilities. Our study (Marini & Meschitti 2018) found that when promotion decisions lacked transparency a strong discrimination existed against women, despite their productivity matching that of their male counterparts. However, gender discrimination was almost absent when fully transparent procedures were adopted. The seminar will also look at whether this discrimination can be explained by similarities in professors' communities (those in charge of bestowing promotions), considering specifically the combination of discipline and institution. |

| Results and Impact | A seminar given at UCL IoE by: Claire Callender, UCL Institute of Education and Birkbeck Ariane de Gayardon, UCL Institute of Education Francis Green, UCL Institute of Education Seminar topic: Recent changes in higher education financing policies in England have led to more students taking out student loans to fund their studies, and the amount borrowed has been increasing. However, little is known about who does and does not take them out and what determines loan take-up - gaps this paper addresses. Unlike previous studies, we analyse loan take-up by type of loan - maintenance and tuition fee - using Next Steps, a unique dataset with rich information on students' backgrounds and attitudes to debt. Students' family wealth, gender, ethnicity, and attitudes to debt are all associated with loan take-up, patterns which perpetuate existing social inequalities. Disadvantaged students are less likely to take out maintenance loans. This is associated with the adoption of debt avoidance mechanisms, like living at home, which can have damaging effects on their higher education experience and their social mobility, suggesting that policies need to focus on students' living costs if the government is committed to widening participation. |

| Results and Impact | Seminar given at UCL IoE by Nikki Shure Seminar topic: This paper explores the characteristics of a recent generation of 'first in the family' (FiF) university graduates in England using a nationally representative dataset, Next Steps (formerly the Longitudinal study of Young People in England, LSYPE) to provide the first comprehensive, descriptive statistics on this group. The researchers identify the proportion of FiF young people at age 25 as compared to their peers who either match their parents' education level (either with degree or without degree) or are downwardly mobile, meaning their parent(s) has a university degree, but they do not. The results show that that 15 per cent of young people aged 25 in 2015 in England are FiF, comprising nearly half of all university graduates of this cohort. We find that girls are more likely than boys to be FiF, as are young people of Indian and Black Caribbean origin, in line with current and historical trends in HE participation. FiF students are less likely to study at elite institutions, but no more likely to drop out, once we control for their previous attainment. The researchers also find that FiF students have greater odds of studying for a Law, Economics and Management degree rather than the 'harder' subjects of Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) subjects. |

| Results and Impact | Seminar given at UCL IOE by Jan McArthur Seminar topic: Using the work of third generation critical theorist Axel Honneth, Dr McArthur will introduce his understanding of social justice as mutual recognition, and her own conceptualisation of assessment for social justice. Taking inspiration from the extensive research on assessment for learning, she argues that assessment has been under-represented in discussions of critical pedagogy and social justice within higher education. There is a tendency to consider assessment off bounds when considering the explicitly political nature of socially just higher education; however, change can only ever be limited if we don't include assessment in the process. Dr McArthur proposes five foundations that should shape assessment practices, if we are committed to greater social justice. To illustrate the ways in which assessment might contribute to greater social justice she draws on preliminary data from the Understanding Knowledge, Curriculum and Student Agency project and considers the ways in which students in Chemistry and Chemical Engineering attribute value to their assessment achievements. She argues that students must have opportunities to connect their assessment activities with a positive contribution to the social whole if we are to further social justice. |

| Results and Impact | Seminar given by Stephen Hunt at UCL Institute of Education Seminar topic: In this seminar Dr Hunt traces some historical trends in the provision of private higher and professional education, and looks at its current state and the forces that have, and continue, to shape it. To do this he examines the historical interaction between public and private provision. He looks at the selective effect of an absence of vocational training in universities, and attempts to explain how some subject areas, such as law, accountancy and acting became specialities of private providers, and others, such as journalism and business studies, were offered by neither public or private providers, despite there being an obvious gap in the market. Dr Hunt also looks at the role qualifying associations, gatekeepers to professional careers, had in sustaining the private sector. Additionally, he looks at incidents of integration between public and private provision, particularly in terms of correspondence education. He concludes by providing an overview of the contemporary private higher education sector, and examines recent legislation and the role private providers are expected to play to meet government ambitions for the higher sector in general. |

Interim targets of 16 per cent in 2021 and 18 per cent by 2026. Progress has been rapid with the 2021 target already met. But difficult issues remain - big differences between individual universities and between colleges and universities, reluctance to offer Higher National students full credit on degree programmes and (potentially) over-timid use of contextual admissions. The seminar will examine these issues as well as wider issues and dilemmas that confront all HE systems in their effort to widen access. |

| Results and Impact | The talk covered the implications of a changing academic workforce for the university as a critical institution, and sparked debate about the implications for university managements of an increasing diversity of roles and identities, ways in which they interact, and changing responsibilities on middle managers such as heads of department in creatively interpreting institutional structures, policies and processes. The talk helped to raise awareness and understanding of the fact that formal categorisations of roles and responsibilities do not fully account for ways in which roles are enacted, the motivations of individuals, and imaginative ways in which a broadening range of staff, with diverse backgrounds and aspirations, are being managed at local level. |

| Results and Impact | This paper draws on a longitudinal study in the UK, Research Project 3.2 of the ESRC/OFS-funded Centre for Global Higher Education, to consider approaches to contemporary academic careers in the light of the general diversification of the workforce introduction of multiple academic career track. Two rounds of qualitative interviews, from Autumn 2017 to Spring 2018 and from Autumn 2019 to Spring 2020, were conducted to explore the perceptions and understandings of individuals in different disciplines and at different levels of seniority in eight UK universities. After the first round of interviews, individuals were categorised according to Mainstream, Portfolio and Niche approaches to a career. In the second round, the questions focused on changes and developments that had occurred to the approach of individuals in the previous two years. What emerged was a fluidity between categories, two or more of which could be represented both by an individual at a single point in time, and across the two-year period. The findings suggested that the situation is more nuanced than described in earlier applications of career theory to higher education, which tend to be described in linear and structural terms, and therefore do not fully reflect ways in which individuals manage their careers in contemporary environments. The concept of the concertina career is developed, in which an individual's activities may expand and contract, both across spaces represented by different activities and relationships, and over time. From this abstract one could expect to understand if, say, career tracks define categories of career patterns or not, and what does influence a change from one category to another one. Basically concertina seems a least denominator, but you could go more quickly to main findings to let a reader have an understanding. |

| Results and Impact | In what ways does South African undergraduate education have a transformative impact on people and society? What conditions are required for this impact to occur? What are the pathways from an undergraduate education to the public good? What are the implications of these pathways for policy makers, institutional managers, and higher education researchers and practitioners? This two day conference explored the answers to these questions that were developed through an ESRC-NRF funded project undertaken as part of the Centre for Global Higher Education (http://www.researchcghe.org/). The project drew together a team of international and South African researchers. The distinctive contribution of this project was to bring together empirical evidence and conceptual debates across three domains of the higher education trajectory that are often considered in isolation: access to higher education, student experience, and graduate outcomes. The first day of the conference focused on the implications of the outcomes of the project for policy makers and practitioners and the second day focused on the implications for researchers. Each day will involve presentations of the outcomes from the project team followed by opportunities to explore their implications in small groups. The conference also marked the launch of an open-access edited book based on the outcomes from the project, which was available to participants at the conference |

| Results and Impact | BSA Annual Conference 2019: The theme for the 2019 Annual Conference is - Challenging Social Hierarchies and Inequalities. The conference will take place at Glasgow Caledonian University from 24-26 April 2019. Can private providers be expected to improve higher education inclusion, choice and quality in the UK? Stephen Hunt, UCL Institute of Education, University of London, United Kingdom Vikki Boliver, University of Durham, United Kingdom The UK government is keen to grow the private provision of higher education as a means of promoting greater choice and quality for students and of facilitating faster progress on widening access to higher education.(BIS, 2016). However, the alternative higher education sector is a largely an unknown quantity. This is principally because there has been no existing up-to-date list of private HE providers. There are few official barriers to entry to the higher education sector. The titles of University and University College, and degree awarding powers are legally protected, and access to public funds through students' course fee loans is now closely regulated, beyond this there are no restrictions on the establishment of private providers, nor has there been any kind of register. The sector is largely unregulated and uncounted. Previous attempts to document the area have only been partially successful: a 2012 survey of alternative providers identified 674 alternative providers but achieved a 37 per cent response rate to their survey of the sector. A 2014 survey identified 732 providers and achieved a 38 per cent response rate. This left much of the sector effectively unaccounted for. (Hughes, Porter, Jones, & Sheen, 2013; Shury, Adams, Barnes, Huntley Hewitt, & Oozeerally, 2016). The Centre for Global Higher Education (CGHE) has developed a comprehensive database of alternative - specifically private - higher education providers in the UK. This CGHE database was constructed in 2017 and is a web-based census, rather than survey, of all identified private providers located in the UK, this included all 732 providers identified in the 2014 survey. For the purposes of our research private providers are defined as teaching to recognised higher education qualification - level 4 or above - but not identified on the Higher Education Funding Council's (HEFCE) or national equivalents' lists of publically funded higher education institutions, nor receiving substantial financial support from other public sources. The data base is composed of standardised quantitative data from each provider's website, covering: foundation date; location - specifically post code details; subjects & level offered; details of the highest level course offered (cost, delivery, part / full-time); external validating/ accrediting relations; external inspection e.g. QAA; and Tier 4 sponsorship. We were also able to identify all the providers identified in the 2014 research. Additional data was gathered from Companies House and the Charities Register concerning the precise legal structure associated with each provider, from which their for-profit or not for-profit status could be inferred, and their current status, whether active or having ceased to operate be identified. The findings indicate there were approximately 820 active private providers of higher education in the UK. Over sixty per cent are structured as small scale for-profit enterprises, that is, as private limited companies. The data concerning location allowed us to map the geographical distribution of private providers in the UK. (It also allowed us to compare this against the official administrative Participation of Local Areas (POLAR) data set which maps relative levels of higher education participation throughout the UK by neighbourhood. We find that private providers are typically not well-placed to contribute to widening access. A large portion of private providers are located in England's South East, particularly London; they are underrepresented in low HE participation neighbourhoods. Criticism of an earlier version of this presentation - over reliance on the unreliable POLAR4 data defining disadvantage - resulted in the inclusion of further administrative data sets: namely HEFCE's Higher Education hot-cold spots data; ACORN data; and, the Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD). The results for the HEFCE data were consistent with the POLAR4 results: a high concentration of private providers in areas of existing high provision. Less compelling were the results of the IMD, where there was a greater concentration of private providers in more deprived areas. The conclusion is that there is an interaction between location and deprivation: less private provision in more remote & deprived areas, not deprived areas per se. With regard to greater choice for students, our findings suggest that private providers offer a much narrower range of disciplinary specialisms than public providers. The most frequently offered subjects are business and administration, offered by 56 per cent of providers, subjects allied to medicine, offered by 20 per cent, and creative arts and design, offered by 13 per cent. The course on offer are often at sub-degree or postgraduate level: although almost 50 per cent of providers offer a level 6 qualification, only around 20 per cent of providers offer a traditional bachelor's level degree. Although many private providers are validated by a public provider or public body, and many teach courses accredited by professional bodies, only a minority have had any kind of external quality inspection. This finding is suggestive of quality issues associated with a majority of providers, and an absence of information on which students may rely on make an informed choice about enrolling with a specific provider. Moreover, referencing the providers identified in the 2014 survey, our research and records at Companies House indicate that between 2014 and 2017 23 per cent of providers had ceased to operate, of these 90 per cent were structured as for-profit institutions. A further nine per cent of providers had vanished leaving no trace. This finding indicates the relatively high level of "market exit" the private, and particularly the for-profit element of the sector, is likely to experience, leading to a greater likelihood of students in the private sector facing the adverse effects of sudden 'provider exit'. Finally, we conclude that private providers are unlikely to be the answer to the UK government's higher education ambitions. Few are currently involved in the provision of undergraduate bachelor degrees, and those that are typically offer only a restricted range of subjects. The private sector also displays a pronounced volatility, with a high proportion of market exits; expansion, particularly of the for-profit element of the private sector, would be likely to introduce a degree of instability into the UK higher education sector.

| Results and Impact | CGHE 2019 annual conference: Challenging higher education. Wednesday, 03 Apr 2019 08:30 - 17:40. Jeffery Hall, UCL Institute of Education "Market exit: The implications for public and private higher education in the UK" Stephen Hunt Vikki Boliver Market exit is an enduring feature of the private higher education sector, and there is evidence that it is now threatening the public sector where it has been hitherto absent. In a system now heavily reliant on tuition fee loans, uncapping student enrolment has exacerbated problems of recruitment for some providers, especially those of lower prestige or which are geographically isolated, particularly in conditions where the number of 18 year olds is currently in decline. The situation has been further destabilised by a government intent on allowing or even encouraging market exit as a means of increasing the quality and efficiency of providers in general. The research identifies the most vulnerable elements of the HE sector, and, based on data and case studies of the private HE sector, examines the consequences of market exit for students and the mechanisms in place to deal with it. Finally, it looks ahead to possible changes to the HE sector the process of market exit once established might effect, particularly in terms of an increased presence of private HE institutions replacing discontinued public providers. The presentation is specifically intended to allow or encourage questions, issues or problems for participant audience engagement. |

We will demystify and digest all the numbers, such as the reduction in the fee cap, the repayment threshold, and assess their impact. We will digest the impact on the whole post-compulsory education system, lifelong learning, further and higher education and how they relate. And all of this in the context of a Conservative party leadership race, an impending spending review and a demographic upswing on the horizon. Where will it take us next? We hope the conference will be part of the building blocks of the sector's response. |

| Results and Impact | Caroline Keim hosted this meeting and presentation at the Department for Education on 26th April 2018. This paper explores the characteristics of a recent generation of 'first in the family' (FiF) university graduates in England using a nationally representative dataset, Next Steps to provide the first comprehensive, descriptive statistics on this group. We identify the proportion of FiF young people at age 25 as compared to their peers who either match their parent's education level (either with degree or without degree) or are downwardly mobile, meaning their parent(s) has a university degree, but they do not. Our results show that that 24 per cent of young people aged 25 in 2015 in England are FiF, comprising nearly two-thirds of all university graduates of this cohort. Comparing groups with no parental higher education we find that ethnic minorities and those with higher levels of prior attainment are more likely to be FiF, and that those who are FiF are more likely to study Law, Economics and Management and less likely to study other Social Sciences, Arts and Humanities than those who are not FiF students. We find evidence that university type varies by FIF status, so too does dropout, where FiF students are at greater risk of dropout, once prior attainment, individual characteristics and socio-economic status are taken into account. Implications for these findings are discussed. |

She warns of universities' over-reliance on student numbers, arguing that a market-driven focus does not enable higher education to meet societal needs. She also says that a 'balancing act' is needed to enable Welsh universities to remain integrated with the broader UK higher education system while maintaining their competitiveness. She points out that Brexit makes this goal more urgent than ever. |

| Results and Impact | Event organised and held in Royal Irish Academy, Dublin. Abstract for Event: In all developed countries, higher education and research is seen as core to social and economic success and is usually seen as serving the public interest because its benefits extend to the individual and society. As such, there is an implicit social contract that balances institutional autonomy and public support through taxation, in return for accountability and transparency. However, many of the assumptions that have underpinned public support for higher education are coming under public scrutiny. Questions are being asked about educational relevance, graduate attributes and the impact of research. Higher education institutions are often accused of being self-serving and insufficiently interested in student learning or outcomes. Many governments are struggling to find the right levers to ensure the right level of accountability while institutions chafe at what they often regard as unwelcome restrictions on their autonomy. In an Irish context, there has been recent, and very public, criticism of the higher education sector across a range of issues. At the seminar, it is not proposed to go over this ground again or to engage in any discussion specific to any higher education institution. Instead, the seminar will focus at the level of policy. Among the issues to be explored with our panel and participants are: what is the public interest in higher education; who determines it; how can it best be served; is there a risk of conflict between the public interest and institutional autonomy or academic freedom and if so how should that be resolved; are the mechanisms of transparency and accountability, that are there to serve the public interest, fit for purpose. The seminar will hear contributions from three perspectives followed by an interactive panel and participant discussion. |

| Results and Impact | Inequalities and the Curriculum Alice Sullivan, Jake Anders, Vanessa Moulton, Catherine Dilnot and Morag Henderson This lunchtime seminar will discuss some of the recent findings from a team of researchers based at UCL Institute of Education. The seminar will run from 12pm-1pm (with 15 minutes for questions) and the room has been booked for an additional 30 minutes for [optional] further discussion. The paper by Jake Anders, Morag Henderson, Vanessa Moulton and Alice Sullivan examines the role of the school in producing curriculum differences using multi-level variance decomposition models applied to administrative data on young people in state schools in England. The paper by Vanessa Moulton, Alice Sullivan, Morag Henderson and Jake Anders examines whether taking EBacc eligible subjects or applied subjects at 14-16 made a difference to transitions at 16-plus, both in terms of staying on in education, progressing to A levels, and taking 'facilitating' subjects at A level. The paper by Alice Sullivan, Morag Henderson, Vanessa Moulton and Jake Anders examines the association between curriculum choice from 14-16 and its association with status attainment at age 25. Catherine Dilnot's paper uses a taxonomy of A-levels developed from the published preferences of the Russell Group of 24 high status UK universities, categorizing A-levels as 'facilitating', 'useful' and 'less suitable' for university entry. She examines the relationships between having such A-levels and rank score of university attended. |

| Results and Impact | The International Student Loan Forum 2017, which took place at the Australian National University, aimed to provide an overarching view of the international experience in higher education financing reform, student loan design and student loan repayment burden. The forum showed case empirical research that addresses important policy issues: to understand the financial difficulties of time-based repayment loan (TBRL) for low-income graduates, to measure the major problems of default onTBRL, to determine the right design characteristics of an income-contingent loan (ICL), and to illustrate the relative costs to government of TBRL and ICL. Delegates from the Ecuadorian embassy in Canberra, delegates from Brazilian federal government, postgraduate students, local academics as well as the general public attended the event. I was a co-convener of the event; I also presented my research on student loan repayment burden in South Korea at the forum. The forum led to further engagement with the Brazilian government on the student loan debate in Brazil. |

| Results and Impact | AlmaLaurea is a Consortium of 75 Italian Universities aimed at collecting both the data about the profile of the graduates in the Italian university system and their employment performances 1, 3 and 5 years after the completion of their studies. AlmaLaurea was founded in 1994 and its surveys concern about 90% of the whole population of graduates. It collects yearly the data about the graduates in the Italian university system and presents two reports every single year in a scientific Conference whose venue changes every year. More information about AlmaLaurea at: http://www.almalaurea.it/en The conferences was attended by university leaders from across Italy. The 2018 conference was hosted by the University of Torino on the 11th of June. The Conference was opened with the official welcome of the Italian Minister of Education, University and Research and the opening remarks by the local Rector, the President of the Italian Conference of Rectors (CRUI), the President of AlmaLaurea and the Councillor for Education and Work of the Region Piedmont. In the first part of the Conference the results of two AlmaLaurea based reports were presented: the first on the employment condition and the second on the educational profile of graduates in Italy. The presentation of these data and their statistical elaborations was followed by the thematic session on "Gaps between graduation and hiring in labour markets". This session, lasting between 10:45 am and 11:30 am, will be chaired by Prof. Alberto Felice De Toni (Rector of the University of Udine, Secretary General of CRUI). Also on behalf of AlmaLaurea Director Marina Timoteo, I appreciate so much that you are able to deliver in this session the keynote speech on "Labour markets performance of graduates in Europe: A comparative view". We are sure that your competence in the analysis of the labour markets performance and their institutional setting would be extremely valuable in the discussion of the dynamics of the University-to-work transition, the quality of graduate jobs and the outcomes in terms of graduate underemployment/mismatch, wage trends and dispersion. This session was followed by three round tables on: "Tracer studies and employment of graduates"; "University pipelines and inequalities"; "University for international students". The conference concluded with a summary by high ranking officials of the Italian Ministry of Education, University and Research . The conference exposed research at the ESRC funded centres CGHE and LLAKES to an international audience. Plans for future related activities were discussed. |

| Results and Impact | This symposium discussed, using the lens of the "three worlds of human capital formation" (Iversen and Stevens, 2008), how different welfare state regimes affect the design of and participation in higher education and training activities, focusing on younger people's access to the labour market. Research has often focused on the increase in graduate supply and the expansion in HE, as well as on whether graduates are 'matched' in the jobs they do. However, examining the socio-political context and its interaction with higher education and training institutions can shed new light on graduates' transitions into the labour market in different countries, focusing on the UK, Italy and Australia, among others. The symposium brought together scholars and practitioners on HE, graduate employment and human capital formation across different disciplines and different institutions. My presentation examined to what extent welfare state theory is able to illuminate difference in graduate labour market trends across European countries in the 21st century. The event was the incubator for a research network of scholars in the field of HE, graduate employment and human capital formation, which has the potential to lead to related activities and collaborations in the future. |

| Results and Impact | The online course aims to help participants see how they can use new technology to tackle some of the very difficult challenges facing the Vocational Education and Training sector. It covers topics such as how best to use the technology to evaluate what works for learners, and how to track their learning; how technology can help with some of the main challenges tp the sector, e.g. by offering more flexible learning, encouraging more independent learning skills, and by sharing and working together perhaps we can also reduce the costs of innovation. In the final week it looks at how the educational organisation embraces this kind of change, and how participants can work with colleagues to make blended learning work most effectively. The course runs wholly online, providing 4 study hours per week for 3 weeks. Activities include short videos, quizzes, discussions, and design activities that link to the Learning Designer tools. More than 10,000 participants were enrolled in the course during the three runs of the course in 2016. During the period when the Learning Designer tools were being used, usage peaked at more than 2000 in one day, and there were more than 20,000 unique visits to the website over a 4-week period, with 15,000 return visits, showing that the software continued to be used. Comments in the discussion forums were very enthusiastic about the prospect of using the tools, and sharing them with colleagues. |

| Primary Audience | Professional Practitioners |
| Results and Impact | Presented project plans and initial findings on First in Family project to Widening Participation professionals on 20th June, 2018. This paper explores the characteristics of a recent generation of 'first in the family' (FiF) university graduates in England using a nationally representative dataset, Next Steps to provide the first comprehensive, descriptive statistics on this group. We identify the proportion of FiF young people at age 25 as compared to their peers who either match their parent's education level (either with degree or without degree) or are downwardly mobile, meaning their parent(s) has a university degree, but they do not. Our results show that that 24 per cent of young people aged 25 in 2015 in England are FiF, comprising nearly two-thirds of all university graduates of this cohort. Comparing groups with no parental higher education we find that ethnic minorities and those with higher levels of prior attainment are more likely to be FiF, and that those who are FiF are more likely to study Law, Economics and Management and less likely to study other Social Sciences, Arts and Humanities than those who are not FiF students. We find evidence that university type varies by FIF status, so too does dropout, where FiF students are at greater risk of dropout, once prior attainment, individual characteristics and socio-economic status are taken into account. Implications for these findings are discussed. |

| Results and Impact | The work presented explores the characteristics of a recent generation of 'first in the family' (FiF) university graduates in England using a nationally representative dataset, Next Steps to provide the first comprehensive, descriptive statistics on this group. We identify the proportion of FiF young people at age 25 as compared to their peers who either match their parent's education level (either with degree or without degree) or are downwardly mobile, meaning their parent(s) has a university degree, but they do not. Our results show that that 24 per cent of young people aged 25 in 2015 in England are FiF, comprising nearly two-thirds of all university graduates of this cohort. Comparing groups with no parental higher education we find that ethnic minorities and those with higher levels of prior attainment are more likely to be FiF, and that those who are FiF are more likely to study Law, Economics and Management and less likely to study other Social Sciences, Arts and Humanities than those who are not FiF students. We find evidence that university type varies by FIF status, so too does dropout, where FiF students are at greater risk of dropout, once prior attainment, individual characteristics and socio-economic status are taken into account. Implications for these findings are discussed. |

This comprises of: university presidents, VPs, registrars, senior academics, as well as elected representatives of the universities. I shared aspects of my research on international student mobility that were the most relevant to university leaders and policy-makers in the area of higher education. This was an opportunity to engage university leaders and policy-makers with my research. In this presentation, I emphasised the risks associated with current internationalising practices at Irish universities, in particular the 'de-academisation' of the Erasmus year abroad and the inequalities in access, experiences and outcomes. |

| Results and Impact | The news article in The Australian Financial Review on August 14, 2017 reads as follows: "Bruce Chapman, who devised the Higher Education Contribution Scheme that financially underpins the massive expansion of university enrolments, is the winner of The Australian Financial Review Higher Education Lifetime Achievement Award for 2017. As former education minister John Dawkins writes today, Professor Chapman's work answered a basic question the Hawke government grappled with in the late 1980s: how could the expansion of higher education be funded without reintroducing up-front tuition fees that poorer students could not afford? The answer was HECS, a subsidised income contingent loan, repaid once the graduate was in the workforce and earning above a threshold income. It was a powerful idea. Some complain that university used to be "free". But this ignores basic economic concepts such as scarcity and opportunity cost. When university education was limited to the relative few, the taxes of ordinary working Australians subsidised the education of children of the mostly already well-off. Professor Chapman's HECS system became a key brick in the foundation of Australia's modern opportunity society. It removed the upfront financial barrier to a university education. But it still required students to shoulder some of the financial investment that would increase their lifetime earnings. And it allowed millions more Australians to get a university degree. Worryingly, just as the Financial Review is acknowledging this simple but powerful economic idea, economics is on the wane in our schools. New Reserve Bank of Australia research shows that the number of year 12 students studying economics has declined by 70 per cent since 1992. Alarmingly, the fall has been concentrated in girls as economics is replaced by less rigorous, but better branded, alternatives such as "business studies". Separately, political populism is promoting harebrained ideas such as British Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn's promise to abolish the British version of Professor Chapman's income-contingent uni fees. But, as any first-year economics student should know, there is no such thing as a free lunch or university education. |

| Results and Impact | This paper explores the characteristics of a recent generation of 'first in the family' (FiF) university graduates in England using a nationally representative dataset, Next Steps to provide the first comprehensive, descriptive statistics on this group. We identify the proportion of FiF young people at age 25 as compared to their peers who either match their parent's education level (either with degree or without degree) or are downwardly mobile, meaning their parent(s) has a university degree, but they do not. Our results show that that 24 per cent of young people aged 25 in 2015 in England are FiF, comprising nearly two-thirds of all university graduates of this cohort. Comparing groups with no parental higher education we find that ethnic minorities and those with higher levels of prior attainment are more likely to be FiF, and that those who are FiF are more likely to study Law, Economics and Management and less likely to study other Social Sciences, Arts and Humanities than those who are not FiF students. We find evidence that university type varies by FIF status, so too does dropout, where FiF students are at greater risk of dropout, once prior attainment, individual characteristics and socio-economic status are taken into account. Implications for these findings are discussed. |

| Results and Impact | The abstract of the report is as follows - The Shannon Consortium (SC) represents a vital regional partnership between the three HEIs in the Mid-West. This partnership is at its best and most effective when addressing issues of regional importance, such as access to quality education services or supporting a strong economy supported by enterprise, innovation and skills, as emphasised in Project 2040. Experience has shown that the partnership can deliver positive impact, such as new and enhanced supports in teaching and learning; efficiencies in services; and new access routes to higher education. Yet the SC has also experienced unclear and conflicting expectations, some of its collaborative frameworks have over-reached, and not all projects have succeeded. A lasting legacy has not been established and from time to time doubts are expressed about the future of the Consortium and the cost/benefit equation for each of the participating institutions. These issues are too important to ignore and point to underlying ambiguities in the framework, unclear expectations, and weaknesses in implementation. The SC faces the choice of upgrading to a formal federation model with a broad mandate to build integrated activities, or a more limited project-specific approach with carefully negotiated agreement on a case by case basis. While varied federal structures are possible, and federation can be an end in itself, it is also ambiguous because it opens the way to possible merger. At this time there is no appetite for merger in any of the institutions, and federation is not favoured at Government level and could be a distraction from more pressing priorities. UL needs to compete within national and global higher education by enhancing its research performance; MIC wants to preserve its special character and global brand; and LIT must move towards development as a second kind of university, a Technological University, probably by merging with an IT from outside the region. The Technological University is wholly compatible with project-based regional activity but not with federation. This report argues for rebooting the Consortium along the lines of the project-centred approach, with continued coordination between the institutions to facilitate the value added by its projects, and suggests changes to governance and legal form to achieve this. The future mandate of the Shannon Consortium should be rendered less grand in theory and more effective in practice |

| Results and Impact | This paper explores the characteristics of a recent generation of 'first in the family' (FiF) university graduates in England using a nationally representative dataset, Next Steps to provide the first comprehensive, descriptive statistics on this group. We identify the proportion of FiF young people at age 25 as compared to their peers who either match their parent's education level (either with degree or without degree) or are downwardly mobile, meaning their parent(s) has a university degree, but they do not. Our results show that that 24 per cent of young people aged 25 in 2015 in England are FiF, comprising nearly two-thirds of all university graduates of this cohort. Comparing groups with no parental higher education we find that ethnic minorities and those with higher levels of prior attainment are more likely to be FiF, and that those who are FiF are more likely to study Law, Economics and Management and less likely to study other Social Sciences, Arts and Humanities than those who are not FiF students. We find evidence that university type varies by FIF status, so too does dropout, where FiF students are at greater risk of dropout, once prior attainment, individual characteristics and socio-economic status are taken into account. Implications for these findings are discussed. |

| Results and Impact | Stephen Hunt Seed Corn Presentation 31 January 2018 "Private Higher Education Providers in the UK: Feasibility of International Comparisons" The full time project I work on involves the development of a database of private higher education providers in the UK, from a web based survey or census of the sector. Previously this information has always been absent. The Programme for Research on Private Higher Education is an international consortium: one of its products is an internationally comparable data set concerning private higher education. Once completed it might have been possible to simply insert the UK data into the relevant PROHE databases. Unfortunately, the most recently updated dataset was in 2010: some have elements not updated since 2007. Hence the need to find out the degree of compatibility between the proposed UK dataset and data available in other countries if international to determine if international comparisons were feasible. • This involved forming a consortium of researcher in the area from a series of countries from scratch. • Conduct research on each of the countries available higher education data resources. • This eventually become the basis for a report detailing the resources for each country, and likely comparability with the UK data set. • The US and Germany in particular exhibited a series of points of contact mainly concerning institutional and course details. Chile and Korea also had useful resources, but Mexico and China had data that was either inaccessible, absent or confused. • Organising a one day seminar to consider international comparisons of HE data, and more general issues relating to private HE. This led to the possibility of an edited volume based around each participant's contribution. • The seminar also brought to light probable deficiencies in the enumeration of private HE providers in Ireland, the US and Germany. The enterprise element of the project is to re-establish a successor to PROPHE, and construct a contemporary internationally comparable resource. |

| Results and Impact | Professor Mary Clare Lennon hosted this presentation at City of New York University. The work presented explores the characteristics of a recent generation of 'first in the family' (FiF) university graduates in England using a nationally representative dataset, Next Steps to provide the first comprehensive, descriptive statistics on this group. We identify the proportion of FiF young people at age 25 as compared to their peers who either match their parent's education level (either with degree or without degree) or are downwardly mobile, meaning their parent(s) has a university degree, but they do not. Our results show that that 24 per cent of young people aged 25 in 2015 in England are FiF, comprising nearly two-thirds of all university graduates of this cohort. Comparing groups with no parental higher education we find that ethnic minorities and those with higher levels of prior attainment are more likely to be FiF, and that those who are FiF are more likely to study Law, Economics and Management and less likely to study other Social Sciences, Arts and Humanities than those who are not FiF students. We find evidence that university type varies by FIF status, so too does dropout, where FiF students are at greater risk of dropout, once prior attainment, individual characteristics and socio-economic status are taken into account. Implications for these findings are discussed. |

| Results and Impact | A seminar presented by Vikki Boliver, University of Durham. 113 attendees. This is seminar 4 of a 5 part series on Student Access to University convened by Simon Marginson and Jo-Anne Baird. Access to higher education is a major social issue in the UK as in most countries. Overall participation in the UK is moving towards 50 per cent of the school leaver age group but non-white students, state school students and students from disadvantaged regions of the UK are under-represented in academically elite universities. This pattern affects entry, completion and outcomes in graduate labour markets. Access to the University of Oxford is a persistent debate. Must universities choose between high standards and socially equitable admissions, or can we have both? What is the scope for change? |

| Results and Impact | The paper builds on literature on intergroup dynamics, especially social identity theory (Tajfel, 1974; Williams & Giles, 1978) and competition theory (Blalock, 1967) to study promotion patterns and gender in academia. Underrepresentation of women professors is a global phenomenon and it has been shown this is not going to solve by itself (Acker, Webber, & Smyth, 2016; Bain & Cummings, 2000; EC, 2016; Le Feuvre, Bataille, Kradolfer, Carral, & Sautier, 2017; Lerchenmueller & Sorenson, 2018; Morley, 2014; Sagaria, 2007). Previous literature studying the issue has been mainly influenced by critical mass theory (Kanter, 1977) and focused especially at the individual level of analysis. Scholars have looked at how promotion to full professor is impacted by productivity (Marini & Meschitti, 2018; Mayer & Rathmann, 2018; Weisshaar, 2017), life domain and caring activities (Ahmad, 2017; Aiston & Jung, 2015), and social capital (van den Brink & Benschop, 2014). This paper focuses instead at the group level, and it wants to understand if the gender composition of associate and full professor ranks predicts the number of promotions available. Given this level of analysis, literature on intergroup dynamics provides a valuable background. |

| Results and Impact | The National University of Singapore, on an occasional basis, invites an academic of international standing to run a 'Teaching Academy Masterclass' for one week. The lecture and related workshops I ran throughout the week made the case that there is a positive role for HE in the digital world, IF the global HE sector seeks to understand the threats, AND seizes the opportunities to steer digital impacts towards beneficial results for the many not the few. The workshop sessions worked through the different mechanisms and findings that contribute to our understanding of how digital technologies can support and enhance the productivity and reach of higher education, both nationally and internationally. |

| Results and Impact | Abstract for the event: Higher education is under pressure to be more transparent and accountability for its education and research. Almost everywhere a war of words has opened-up about credential relevance, career readiness and cost vs. price. We have traditionally relied on peer-review and self-reporting, but critics (and even some of our friends) are saying this is no longer adequate. This session will examine these issues through an interactive discussion, sparked by provocations. To what extent are students and the "public" distrustful of higher education or are the media and political officials actively encouraging such distrust? Can traditional forms of academic accountability, such as quality assurance and accreditation, continue to deliver public assurance of the quality of institutional performance or are new forms of external verification required? How do we balance different perspectives? |

| Results and Impact | Degree level education in the UK has grown from a small elite system to take in almost half of the school leaver age group. British universities are among the world's most successful, as shown by their research performance and their attractiveness to international students, yet a never ending source of controversy at home. Not enough participation, or too many graduates? Highways for upward social mobility, or drivers of inequality? Fair sharers of public and private costs, or engines of graduate debt? In A University Education, released by Oxford University Press in November 2017, the most influential recent Minister for Higher Education, Lord David Willetts, reflects critically on where the universities have come from and where they are going, on his own transformative system reforms - including the £9k fee regime, the uncapping of student numbers and the entry of new providers - and on the enduring power of higher education to expand people's lives. At this seminar Lord Willetts discussed the main themes of the book, with responses from Professor James Wilsdon, CGHE Programme Leader, and Professor Simon Marginson, Director of CGHE, followed by questions and all-in audience participation in what promises to be a lively discussion. The seminar was chaired by Professor Claire Callender, Deputy Director of CGHE. There was a lively discussion among the 200 or so people present, and a further audience through live streaming and subsequent 83 YouTube views. |

| Results and Impact | A controversial policy when introduced in 1998, tuition fees for higher education in England have remained a contentious issue. But the debate about their future and the implications for the quantity and quality of higher education in England reached new heights in late 2017. This event, which took place at the Resolution Foundation, brought together senior UK policy makers and international experts to debate the challenges and opportunities of higher education funding in England. Speakers included Professor Bruce Chapman, the architect of the Australian Higher Education Contribution Scheme loans system (HECS), Professor Lorraine Dearden of the UCL Institute of Education and the IFS who has written extensively on higher education funding, Lord David Willetts, Executive Chair of the Resolution Foundation and former Universities Minister in the coalition government, and Lord Andrew Adonis, who oversaw Tony Blair's 2004 reforms to tuition fees as Education Minister. The panel was chaired by Heather Stewart, Joint Political Editor of the Guardian Newspaper. There was Q&A after short speeches from the invited speakers. A very lively discussion occurred, including questions from an online audience. There have been 200 YouTube plays of the full debate. The event was live-tweeted with organic impressions of 10,059 over the course of the day. |

Among the issues by the panel and participants were: what is the public interest in higher education; who determines it; how can it best be served; is there a risk of conflict between the public interest and institutional autonomy or academic freedom and if so how should that be resolved; are the mechanisms of transparency and accountability, that are there to serve the public interest, fit for purpose. There was a very lively discussion. |

| Results and Impact | In the context of the research programme on the changing nature of work and skills of the Human Capital and Employment Unit of the European Commission's Joint Research Centre, this seminar brought together around 20 international experts on tasks, skills and occupations from research centre, international bodies and universities in Sevilla in February 21st and 22nd. The first day kicked off a project to update the Eurofound tasks framework, compiling national databases with a common methodology in four European countries (UK, Germany, Italy and Spain) and designing a questionnaire for the measurement of tasks, work organisation and technology. This project is jointly coordinated by the JRC and Italy's INAPP, with participation of INAPP, the University of Warwick, Pompeu Fabra University and BIBB from Germany. For Britain, the project will draw on the Skills and Employment Survey Series: An ESRC funded data collection effort. The second day saw discussion of several ongoing projects from JRC and collaborators on the topic of tasks, skills and occupations, including: "A unified conceptual framework on skills, tasks and occupations", "AI, tasks and the automation of Human labour", "Tasks in the platform economy". Potential plans for future collaboration on related activities were discussed. |

| Results and Impact | Rajani Naidoo spoke live on TRT World's Insight programme about the challenges facing higher education in South Africa. She says that while there have been transformations in South Africa's higher education system since apartheid, issues affecting education today include large numbers of students coupled with lack of resources and a highly unequal society. Recalling her own experience as a student in South Africa at a time when universities were racially segregated, she argues that university access has changed from being dictated by race to dictated by economic wealth, with poor families going to poorly resourced schools. She argues that 'something has to happen both at the school level and at the university level. Universities need to test much more for potential rather than just looking at merit in the usual way'. Professor Naidoo highlights inequality, fees (she points out that these are unregulated in South Africa) and lack of governmental support as being causes of recent student protests. She argues that the protests did not reflect a lack of belief in, or disillusionment with, higher education itself, but rather a desire for a fairer system for future generations and a belief that 'universities are for the public good'. |

| Results and Impact | Dr. Stephen DesJardins, Professor at the University of Michigan and CGHE Co-Investigator, spoke with nearly 50 faculty, doctoral students, master's students, and community members at a University of Michigan Center for the Study of Higher and Postsecondary Education research-in-progress talk. In this talk, he introduced attendees to the broader CGHE project as well as the parts of the research being conducted by Dr. DesJardins and Michigan doctoral students. Of note, Dr. DesJardins highlighted preliminary findings related to the significant variation in graduates' student loan repayment journeys, and how the variation in these journeys could lead to differences in the effects of student loan debt on students' life course outcomes. Parallel research being conducted by Dr. DesJardins uses U.S. nationally-representative longitudinal datasets to observe directly the relationship between debt and life outcomes. Together, the research threads that Dr. DesJardins shared with attendees led to a lively conversation about how federal repayment policy surrounding student loans affects students' post-collegiate lives. Several audience members noted taking a new interest in studying student borrowing from the perspective of its effects on subsequent outcomes and how the student borrower experience in the U.S. contrasts with similar experiences among U.K. borrowers. |

| Results and Impact | The work presented at RES explores the characteristics of a recent generation of 'first in the family' (FiF) university graduates in England using a nationally representative dataset, Next Steps to provide the first comprehensive, descriptive statistics on this group. We identify the proportion of FiF young people at age 25 as compared to their peers who either match their parent's education level (either with degree or without degree) or are downwardly mobile, meaning their parent(s) has a university degree, but they do not. Our results show that that 24 per cent of young people aged 25 in 2015 in England are FiF, comprising nearly two-thirds of all university graduates of this cohort. Comparing groups with no parental higher education we find that ethnic minorities and those with higher levels of prior attainment are more likely to be FiF, and that those who are FiF are more likely to study Law, Economics and Management and less likely to study other Social Sciences, Arts and Humanities than those who are not FiF students. We find evidence that university type varies by FIF status, so too does dropout, where FiF students are at greater risk of dropout, once prior attainment, individual characteristics and socio-economic status are taken into account. Implications for these findings are discussed. |

| Results and Impact | This was a 5 part series on Student Access to University convened by Simon Marginson and Jo-Anne Baird. Featuring speakers from Universities around the UK and a representative from the Office for Students. Access to higher education is a major social issue in the UK as in most countries. Overall participation in the UK is moving towards 50 per cent of the school leaver age group but non-white students, state school students and students from disadvantaged regions of the UK are under-represented in academically elite universities. This pattern affects entry, completion and outcomes in graduate labour markets. Access to the University of Oxford is a persistent debate. Must universities choose between high standards and socially equitable admissions, or can we have both? What is the scope for change? Each seminar reached between 80-120 people with further views and downloads from the podcasts available after each event. Each seminar was followed by lively discussion and engagement. |

| Primary Audience | Policymakers/politicians |
| Results and Impact | The Government has placed a great deal of faith in the competitive effects of private and particularly for-profit higher education (HE) providers addressing the apparent deficiencies of the public higher education system: substandard teaching, poor outcomes, a lack of flexible provision, and a failure to effectively widen participation. In this presentation I examine the current composition of the private higher education sector and attempt to assess how close it is to realising the government's ambitions. I address this by examining the prevalence of private providers, the subjects taught, and the educational level at which they are offered. In assessing the likelihood of the private sector issues of widening participation I consider the composition of the student body at private providers, and their comparative outcomes. I also look at the geographical distribution of private providers. The evidence does not indicate the private sector is positioned to stand as any effective source of competition for standard undergraduate education, neither in scale of existing provision, nor scope of subjects taught, while the sector's contribution to widening participation is likely to be constrained by its geographical concentration in London and the South East. The ensuing debate considered the success of government initiatives to expand the private HE sector; the reasons behind the revision of HE oversight, and the interface between public and private HE especially concerning non-traditional students. |

| Results and Impact | International audience numbering 100 attedned (or tuned in to) a seimar presentation concerning the private higher education landscape in the UK. The UK government sees private higher education providers as a key means of stimulating 'competition' within the sector, hoping to generate greater choice, higher quality and lower cost and has subsidised new start-ups generously in the last decade. But the private sector remains largely a black box, to policy makers along with the public. We analyse data for 802 private HE providers currently operating in the UK and identify four types of institution: for-profit providers offering business/IT courses at sub-degree (c.50%) or masters (c.10%) level, not-for-profit providers offering other kinds of specialist provision at bachelors and masters level (c.27%), and longer-standing for-profit providers with their own degree-awarding powers delivering courses mainly at masters level (c.13%). Three of these four provider types offer little in the way of traditional bachelor degree provision, and the most common type is highly vulnerable to "market exit". These findings cast significant doubt on the capacity of private providers to replace or enhance publicly funded HE provision. |

| Results and Impact | Summary of the keynote speech - Higher education carries out a broad range of social and economic functions. It forms people, or rather it helps people to form themselves. It helps to build relational human society. It provides conditions for economic activity; not just by graduating people with diverse occupational skills and qualifications but also people with social capital, information and expertise. It also produces, organizes, disseminates and reproduces formal knowledge. It fosters criticism and civil discussion and at certain times in history this role has been very important. It also furthers global cooperation. These functions take the form of both individualized and collective outputs or 'goods', and are expressed at local, national and global levels. All else being equal, in large scale high participation systems of higher education, as in Russia today, these many 'goods' contributed by higher education ought to be greatly enhanced. But a crucial issue is how the contributions of higher education are valued or ordered. Measurement, legitimacy and hierarchy all enter the contributions equation. Arguably, and despite the fact that higher education in Russia has tremendous potential, the system of valuation diminishes rather than enhances the socially recognizable contributions of higher education in Russia today. |

| Results and Impact | What is the international or global space in higher education and how do we understand it? Scholar-researchers apply a range of disciplinary lenses and methods. Geography plays a key role in many but not all studies of student mobility or global science. Others analyse these dynamics through an economic or policy studies or linguistic frame. Some are hunting for an elusive universal perspective, others are very mindful of national or cultural differences. Some are especially attentive to the challenges facing education in emerging countries. Some look for signs of their own country everywhere they look, others are fascinated by what they see as foreign exotica, others are post-colonial. Many who research 'internationalisation' as student mobility and other cross-border connections, or work on 'global competences', don't necessarily research comparative education in a rigorous manner, or take account of the literature on development education. The interesting and productive differences between an 'international', 'comparative' and a 'global' perspective are rarely discussed. These differences shape the contents and impacts of higher education research and scholarship. The contrary knowledge produced in this field shapes our global imagining in fragmented ways - is the diversity always fruitful? Should we work to develop a common view? This series will explore six different approaches to imagining and investigating international higher education, highlighting similarities and differences between them, and drawing the participant audience into active discussion. The CGHE Seminar series on international and global higher education concluded on this day with a panel discussion with all six speakers from the previous three seminars: Rachel Brooks, Maia Chankseliani, Ariane de Gayardon, Simon Marginson, Tristan McCowan and David Mills. The chair is Alis Oancea from the University of Oxford. |

| Results and Impact | The long-awaited review into post-18 education and funding, the Augar Report, was released in May 2019 and ignited debates across higher and further education. In this event, members of the CGHE research team analysed the strengths and weaknesses of the Augar report and discussed the future of HE and FE across the country, including relations between them, and the systems of tuition and student support. The discussion included the cost of Augar, its impact on governance, its influence on different academic fields, and specialised insights from the further education sector. After the presentations there was considerable audience Q&A with the panel. |

| Results and Impact | The paper argued as follows - What is the global in higher education and how does it relate to the national domain where institutions and persons are primarily funded and ordered? To grasp this we need to set aside some common assumptions. First, the global and the international are not identities, or 'dimensions' integrated into the 'purpose, functions or delivery' of education in one university or nation. They can only exist as relationships. Second, global relations are understood in terms of connectedness - people, institutions and ideas crossing borders - but while connections are certainly part of the picture, to define the global in this manner leaves us stuck at the rim of the 'national container'. We need a way of imagining the global in higher education that brings it into open view, enhances its potential value and interrogates relations of power within it (relationships are not always symmetrical), even while national and local phenomena can also freely appear. The paper finds that the global is most usefully understood in terms of relational systems at the world and world-regional level, and globalisation as the process of integration on this scale. Just as national higher education is a process of nation-state building, globalisation in higher education and science is a process of world-building. Global systems are partial and uneven, but higher education - especially its knowledge-intensive components - is among the most global of all human activities and constitutes a form of global civil society. The discussion that followed was vigorous and intelligent. |

| Results and Impact | This presentation of original work from CGHE research project 1.1. The paper compared Sinic and Anglo-American approaches to the role of higher education in generating public and common goods. It paralleled the two higher education systems in the light of their political and educational cultures and their approaches to collectivism and individualism. It outlined how the state in China is and always has been a comprehensive state, in contrast to the Anglo-American limited liberal state. In the Anglo-American countries economic policy has constructed a limited role for public goods so as to maximise the scope for the market economy. There is a growing emphasis on higher education as a private good. Despite this, Anglo-American countries also practice a broader notion of 'public' based on communications and democratic inclusion in civil society and higher education as part of the civil order. Compared to the English-speaking countries, China's political culture embodies larger potentials for collective ties, shared goods and state intervention in higher education, and a lesser role for higher education in fostering civil society. There is a growing emphasis on the individual in Chinese culture, and Western influences in higher education are obvious. Chinese higher education is more influenced by Anglo-American ideas than vice versa. Many Chinese academics and students are bilingual. Historically, China has always had the capacity to take in foreign ideas and make them part of the mix. The paper found that nevertheless, Anglo-American and Sinic political cultures continue to contrast greatly and this impacts the wider conversations and debates which inform the social nature and role of higher education. Though the two sets of higher education institutions have much in common, especially in the sciences, there are also deep underlying differences. Yet they share a common space in worldwide higher education. The discussion that followed the paper was insightful and stimulating for all present. |

| Results and Impact | The paper reviewed the rapid development of higher education and science in China in the last forty years. It discussed the conditions and strategies of that development, including the ways that it embodies a distinctive Chinese approach to higher education. In particular, the paper reflected on the policies whereby China coordinated with globalization in higher education and science after 1978, in building national capacity and global influence. Scale, nation-state policy goals and accelerated investment on their own are necessary but not sufficient (otherwise Saudi Arabia's research universities would be stronger than they are). The effective national/global synergy developed by China, made possible by the international openness and part-devolution to science communities that was implemented in the Deng Xiaoping era, has been crucial in the rapid rise of China's universities and science. This national/global synergy-and its potentials, tensions and limits-in turn has determined the nature of the achievement and will shape its future evolution. |

| Results and Impact | A seminar presented by a panel of Heads of College at University of Oxford. 120 attendees. This is seminar 5 of a 5 part series on Student Access to University convened by Simon Marginson and Jo-Anne Baird. Access to higher education is a major social issue in the UK as in most countries. Overall participation in the UK is moving towards 50 per cent of the school leaver age group but non-white students, state school students and students from disadvantaged regions of the UK are under-represented in academically elite universities. This pattern affects entry, completion and outcomes in graduate labour markets. Access to the University of Oxford is a persistent debate. Must universities choose between high standards and socially equitable admissions, or can we have both? What is the scope for change? |

As part of this work Dr. DesJardins and colleagues are using social sequence analysis as well as event history analysis to better visualize the process by which students move through the repayment process. In the talk, he shared preliminary findings for the sample population as a whole and for subgroups of interest. Because the talk centered on the use of unique methodologies to study these questions, it led to a lively discussion about the ways in which these methodologies could be employed to further uncover policy-relevant narratives about the student loan repayment process in the United States. |

| Results and Impact | Overcoming a massive teacher shortage and lack of teacher capacity around the world is a key challenge if we are to achieve Sustainable Development Goal 4 (SDG4) - ensure inclusive and quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all by 2030. UNESCO estimates that 68.8 million teachers need to be recruited and trained in developing countries. However, current approaches to teacher professional development (TPD) often suffer from poor quality and high costs, particularly when trying to deliver training at large scale. New approaches are required to enable the delivery of large-scale, cost-effective, continuous professional development programs for teachers.

| Results and Impact | An academic talk at the CLOSER conference on 1st 2nd November: In this paper, we examine the role of young people's belief in their own academic ability (academic self-concept) as a way to explain differences in higher education and early labour market outcomes. Using longitudinal data from England (Next Steps), we examine whether young people with higher academic self-concept are more likely to study A Levels, participate in further education and attend university. For those who do attend university, we examine whether young people with higher self-belief attend high status universities or study high status subjects. This paper also explores the relationship between academic self-concept and income and occupational status. The results suggest that while academic self-concept is an important predictor of later educational transitions, it does not entirely account for the social gradient in participation at A Levels, further education or higher education. In addition, we find some evidence that academic self-concept predicts occupational class, but is not associated with earnings at age 25 net of educational choices and ability. It may have an indirect effect, however, on these outcomes through educational pathways. These findings have important policy implications for higher education participation and widening participation in particular. |

"As a whole, the evaluation paints a picture of the TEF as having very little to do with teaching quality or excellence," he said. "Instead, it is about institutions managing the TEF process to maximise their TEF outcome and then, providing they do not get bronze, using this as a way of marketing their provision to prospective students who generally are not aware of what the award means."" |

| Primary Audience | Professional Practitioners |
| Results and Impact | The European Science Foundation funded a research project named 'TRUE - Transforming Universities in Europe'. Eight groups in eight countries participated in this research: France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Switzerland, and the UK. The main assumption of this research was to trace the transformation(s) of universities in several European countries. Universities, although within different national systems, were supposed to move towards a clearer 'institutional autonomy' pattern. TRUE tested if European universities are in a process of becoming more 'complete organisations', stressing the role of the governing bodies. Governing bodies, their (new) functions, and their actual powers were at the core of this possible driver of transformation. This project brought essential insights in the field, and also served as a first attempt in the field of higher education to pursue organisational comparative research in more contexts at the same time. The aim of this seminar is to present the backbone of this research, especially in its quantitative component, discussing critically some different options. The transformation of universities in a heterogeneous context like the European one may require future longitudinal designs for which the TRUE project can be a referral. |

| Form Of Engagement Activity | A talk or presentation |

| Geographic Reach | National |
| Primary Audience | Professional Practitioners |
| Results and Impact | Date: 20 November 2019 Time: 12:15-4:00 pm Location: Faculty of Education, University of Cambridge with Morag Henderson, Nikki Shure and Anna Adamecz-Volgyi This is the first in a series of events which will present rigorous evidence on different aspects of Universities' efforts to widen participation and their activities to support learners from more disadvantaged backgrounds whilst in university. The events will provide a forum for discussion of how such evidence might be used in practice. The aim of the series is to enable academics and practitioners to come together to discuss what constitutes effective practice and how the sector might go about evaluating their own practice. The first workshop will focus on the challenge of identifying disadvantaged students. Is 'first in family' a good indicator for widening university participation?: Anna Adamecz-Völgyi, Morag Henderson and Nikki Shure Currently, a range of universities use 'first in family' or 'first generation' as an indicator to increase the diversity of their student intake, but very little is known about whether this is a good indicator of disadvantage and how it overlaps with other widely used indicators. We use nationally representative, longitudinal survey data linked to administrative education data from England to provide the first comprehensive analysis of the first in family measure. We show how first in family correlates with other commonly used measures of disadvantage and find that it captures additional disadvantage over and above other measures. We employ parametric probability and non-parametric classification models to look at its relative predictive power to predict university participation and graduation. We find that being first in family is an important barrier to university participation and graduation, even after controlling for other sources of disadvantage. This seems to work through the channel of early educational attainment. Our research provides evidence that the first in family indicator could be key in efforts to widen participation at universities through the use of contextualised admissions. |
