SMF & CAGE briefing: The importance of education and skills in driving social mobility
Policy Briefing Event, Wednesday 24 October
Updated labour market statistics released later this month are likely to once again highlight the large earnings disparities apparent in the UK.
In this joint briefing by the Centre for Competitive Advantage in the Global Economy (CAGE) and the Social Market Foundation, Dr Claire Crawford will focus on one important determinant of these disparities – the socio-economic status of an individual’s parents – and how education and skills policy should be used to weaken these relationships and hence drive social mobility. She will explore several issues including:
- The stark disparities in access to our most selective education institutions and what we know about how to ‘widen’ access;
- The importance of looking beyond these selective institutions to ensure we deliver high quality education and skills for individuals throughout the system;
- How to ensure that the generation now entering the labour market has the skills necessary to succeed in their careers.
About the speaker:
Claire is a Reader in Economics at the University of Birmingham and a Research Associate at CAGE. Her research focuses on the determinants of educational attainment and participation, especially in higher education. She is particularly interested in understanding what explains inequalities in these outcomes, and what schools, universities and policymakers can do to help reduce these gaps. Claire is also a Research Fellow of the Institute for Fiscal Studies.Chair: James Kirkup

Tarun Jain: Reshaping Adolescents’ Gender Attitudes: Evidence from a School-Based Experiment in India
Abstract:
Societal norms about gender roles perpetuate the economic disadvantages facing women in many developing countries. This paper evaluates an intervention aimed at eroding support for restrictive gender norms, specifically a multi-year school-based intervention in Haryana, India, that engaged adolescents in classroom discussions about gender equality. Using a randomized controlled trial, we find that the intervention improved adolescents’ gender attitudes by 0.25 standard deviations, a sizable effect in comparison to other correlates of their attitudes such as their parents’ attitudes. Program participants also report more gender-equitable behavior; for example, boys report helping out more with household chores.

Teaching & Learning Seminar - Sophie Reissner-Roubicek (Warwick)
Understanding interactional patterns, preferences, and styles: Putting intercultural communication theory into your practice
In this talk, I’ll firstly pinpoint the key dimensions of culture that are considered to influence our communication (and) behaviour at individual and group levels. We’ll focus on the areas that offer the most useful insights for the academic workplace (including teaching, facilitation, and supervision) and look at some of the resources developed with funding from IATL and WIHEA. These research-based training materials also push participants to reflect on their orientation to the culture of learning and we’ll consider how this impacts on the interactions between students and between students and staff.
About the speaker
Sophie is a Principal Teaching Fellow at the Department of Applied Linguistics at Warwick. She designs and delivers blended intercultural training for professionals and students across disciplines and internationally. Sophie is part of the Applied Linguistic team working with the Office for Global Engagement to develop students' intercultural competence, and academic lead in Monash-Warwick Alliance project researching the implementation of their GoGlobal Study Abroad Intercultural Training.

Book launch: The Soviet economy and the approach of war, 1937-1939
by R. W. Davies, Mark Harrison, Oleg Khlevniuk, and S. G. Wheatcroft
The Centre for Russian, European and Eurasian Studies (CREES), in conjunction with the ESRC Centre on Competitive Advantage in the Global Economy (CAGE) at the University of Warwick, would like to invite you to the following event:
Wednesday, 7th November 2018
17:30-18:30 (networking event afterwards)
The University of Birmingham
Room 420 Muirhead TowerSpeakers:
Julian Cooper, CREES, University of Birmingham
Melanie Ilic, University of Gloucestershire
Mark Harrison, University of Warwick
Stephen Wheatcroft, University of Melbourne
The Soviet economy and the approach of war, 1937-1939, by R. W. Davies, Mark Harrison, Oleg Khlevniuk, and S. G. Wheatcroft (Palgrave, 2018) marks the conclusion of a forty-year project of research on Soviet industrialisation funded by the ESRC, based at CREES, and led by former CREES director Bob Davies. The book begins with the Great Terror and ends with the Hitler-Stalin pact and the outbreak of World War II in Europe. During that time, Soviet society was repeatedly mobilised against internal and external enemies, and the economy provided a principal arena of that struggle.
This event is free to attend and all are welcome.

Teaching & Learning Seminar - Lara Alcock (Loughborough)
Seminar Organiser: Stefania Paredes Fuentes Tilting the Classroom: Engaging Students in Large Lectures There is much discussion currently about flipping the classroom or otherwise making dramatic adjustments to teaching. But for most lecturers, especially those with large classes, this is not practical. My view is that lectures are not inherently bad, and that that there are numerous ways to make them more engaging without dramatic changes. This talk will be about 18 approaches that I use - these work well together, but each can be implemented independently so they can be tried out according to personal taste. There will be lots of examples and some light-touch discussion of how this approach relates to evidence from psychological research on learning. - Mon11Feb

The Department of Economics is pleased to welcome Paul Seabright to present the first lecture in the 360 Guest Lecture Series 2018/19.
Date: Thursday 25 October 2018, 6-7pm
Location: OC0.03, Oculus, University of WarwickAbout the author - Paul Seabright
Paul currently teaches Economics at the Toulouse School of Economics and has lived in the centre of the city of Toulouse in France since 2000.
He did his undergraduate and doctoral studies at the University of Oxford, where he was a Fellow of All Souls College, then taught at the University of Cambridge where he was a Fellow of Churchill College.

Book launch: The Soviet economy and the approach of war, 1937-1939
by R. W. Davies, Mark Harrison, Oleg Khlevniuk, and S. G. Wheatcroft
The Centre for Russian, European and Eurasian Studies (CREES), in conjunction with the ESRC Centre on Competitive Advantage in the Global Economy (CAGE) at the University of Warwick, would like to invite you to the following event:
Wednesday, 7th November 2018
17:30-18:30 (networking event afterwards)
The University of Birmingham
Room 420 Muirhead TowerSpeakers:
Julian Cooper, CREES, University of Birmingham
Melanie Ilic, University of Gloucestershire
Mark Harrison, University of Warwick
Stephen Wheatcroft, University of Melbourne
The Soviet economy and the approach of war, 1937-1939, by R. W. Davies, Mark Harrison, Oleg Khlevniuk, and S. G. Wheatcroft (Palgrave, 2018) marks the conclusion of a forty-year project of research on Soviet industrialisation funded by the ESRC, based at CREES, and led by former CREES director Bob Davies. The book begins with the Great Terror and ends with the Hitler-Stalin pact and the outbreak of World War II in Europe. During that time, Soviet society was repeatedly mobilised against internal and external enemies, and the economy provided a principal arena of that struggle.
This event is free to attend and all are welcome.

The evening lecture with Bishnupriya Gupta, Professor of Economics and CAGE Research Associate at the University of Warwick and a leading expert on the history of India.
Abstract
In 1947 India was one of the poorest countries in the world. Did colonial rule lower living standards and recent pro-market policies put India on a growth path? Evidence on wages and per capita GDP from 1600 show a prosperous economy in 1600 under the Mughal Emperor Akbar. Living standards began to decline before colonization. The decline coincided with increased integration with international markets and the rising trade in textiles to Europe and stagnated even as India became a part of the global economy of the British Empire. Indian growth reversal began in independent India with the policies of regulation of trade and industry and a distance of from global economy. There are lessons from history to understand Indian growth today.The lecture is open to all staff, students and the general public.

Teaching & Learning Seminar - Sophie Reissner-Roubicek (Warwick)
Understanding interactional patterns, preferences, and styles: Putting intercultural communication theory into your practice
In this talk, I’ll firstly pinpoint the key dimensions of culture that are considered to influence our communication (and) behaviour at individual and group levels. We’ll focus on the areas that offer the most useful insights for the academic workplace (including teaching, facilitation, and supervision) and look at some of the resources developed with funding from IATL and WIHEA. These research-based training materials also push participants to reflect on their orientation to the culture of learning and we’ll consider how this impacts on the interactions between students and between students and staff.
About the speaker
Sophie is a Principal Teaching Fellow at the Department of Applied Linguistics at Warwick. She designs and delivers blended intercultural training for professionals and students across disciplines and internationally. Sophie is part of the Applied Linguistic team working with the Office for Global Engagement to develop students' intercultural competence, and academic lead in Monash-Warwick Alliance project researching the implementation of their GoGlobal Study Abroad Intercultural Training.

Tilting the Classroom: Engaging Students in Large Lectures
There is much discussion currently about flipping the classroom or otherwise making dramatic adjustments to teaching. But for most lecturers, especially those with large classes, this is not practical. My view is that lectures are not inherently bad, and that that there are numerous ways to make them more engaging without dramatic changes. This talk will be about 18 approaches that I use - these work well together, but each can be implemented independently so they can be tried out according to personal taste. There will be lots of examples and some light-touch discussion of how this approach relates to evidence from psychological research on learning.
