Innovations in Decolonising the Curriculum

Multidisciplinary Perspectives

About this book

Decolonising the curriculum is not a one-size-fits-all approach. In the case of higher education, each discipline needs to tailor the decolonising approach to their unique context and subject area needs. United by a shared responsibility for dismantling colonial legacies in higher education curricula, the authors of this edited collection reflect on ways they have embedded innovative grassroots efforts to navigate power and knowledge to transform curricula. Featuring authors from a range of disciplines including architecture, business, biology, computer science, criminology, education, finance, history, international relations, literature, physics, and visual arts, the collection provides the reader with a rare opportunity for cross-disciplinary learning. Authors share their ideas, tools, and experiences as they manoeuvre through a state of liminal transformation towards a decolonised future for higher education. 

Topics include curricular design, classroom arrangements, impactful assessments, library support, pedagogical racism, restorative practices, research funding, research methodologies, and the degree awarding gap. The book aims to support readers at different stages of the decolonising university curricula journey, including those in the early stages and those who are looking to develop and deepen their practice. Examining the importance of decolonising curricula in a post-colonial and globalised world, Innovations in Decolonising the Curriculum is for all who are keen to move 'decolonising the curriculum' from debate to action in higher education.
