Conversations with educators about research in and relating to further education in the UK. Academics, practitioner researchers, postgraduate students, teachers, lecturers, support colleagues, research and campaign organisations - we welcome everyone behind the mic. We are particularly keen to raise the profile of those working in the sector who are engaged with edu research and our allies in academia, all with something to say about the powerful role played by FE in shaping peoples’ lives and our communities. We chat with those undertaking small scale enquiry relating to their practice right through to professors, policy makers and practice influencers. We sometimes venture outside of FE and see what life is like for educator-researchers in other phases of education or get creative and chat with poets and artists. As PhD students and full-time teachers / educators ourselves, we usually have something to say about what we have been up to. We also love nothing more than an end of podcast game with our guests! Feel free to get in touch and join the conversation. Keep the discussion going on X (formerly known as Twitter) @FEresearchpod, on instagram @FEresearchpodcast or search #FEresearchpodcast. You can also find Jo hanging out on LinkedIn and BlueSky. She’s rather a fan of an instagram reel (she has not yet ventured to Tik Tok, something we can all be grateful for). Alistair is more likely to be found at the editing desk or wielding a mic and camera. You can find out more and get in touch via: https://linktr.ee/feresearchpodcast
