Dr Yvette Hutchison wins the £5,000 Warwick Award for Teaching Excellence in 2016!

Wed, 29 Jun 2016 13:23:33 GMT

Congratulations to Dr Yvette Hutchison on winning the Warwick Award for Teaching Excellence this year. Yvette’s teaching is inspired by bell hooks’ call for "that quality of education that is enabling and empowering and that allows us to grow" (Radical Openness). She understands this empowerment to encompass intellectual concepts and creative practices, and so she explores ideas, asks questions and generates more questions with her students, thereby replicating research processes and creating opportunities for collaborative knowledge generation. As her research and teaching are focused around non-western, non- text-based material, she seeks to engage students actively and critically with unfamiliar world views and approaches to culture in embodied, experiential ways that can potentially transform them all.
