Grace Stangroome
PhD Student.
My work is associated with BIG::Diverse. My research themes and interests include accessibility, inclusion & teamwork pedagogy.
Grace Stangroome is a PhD student supervised by Dr Oussama Metatla and Dr Kenton O’Hara. The focus of her PhD will be understanding ways in which new technologies can be used to improve co-working or peer-working with mixed-ability (disabled and non-disabled) student groups. From the perspective of the disabled community, group work can be challenging and contain additional labour for disabled people. She wants to investigate how to make group work easier for disabled students and if it could improve the retention and outcome of higher education degrees.
