Hi, my name is Grace and I'm a first-year Sociology student. I was given the opportunity by the Laidlaw Foundation to conduct research on the student-led project: 'Thinking Inside the Box. 

In order to fully understand the project three other Laidlaw scholars (including myself) will be conducting interviews with the students, staff and stakeholders involved in the project.

My focus for the research project will be on the pedagogic approach to 'Thinking Inside the Box' and how it allowed students to practice ownership and autonomy in designing their own authentic learning experiences and skills-development.

I would love to collaborate with other scholars who have done research into the neoliberal university structure or who are interested in it!
