I work at De Montfort University in Leicester, UK, where I am Professor of Education and Technology.
Between 2016-18 I was the Co-Director of our Institute for Education Futures, which was a self-critical scholarly community that aimed to support the Scholarly DMU Educator. Between 2002-16 I was Head of Enhancing Learning through Technology at DMU.
I am also a Higher Education Academy National Teaching Fellow, a Research Associate in the Centre for Computing and Social Responsibility at DMU, and a member of the Centre for Urban Research on Austerity at DMU.
I have PRINCE2 and Managing Successful Programmes Practitioner status. I have worked extensively on research projects and with MA/PhD research students.
My research interests include:
- the idea of the University and radical alternatives to it;
- the place of co-operative practice and mass intellectuality in overcoming disruption in higher education;
- the University and the Triple Crunch (of socio-environmental crisis, energy availability, and the secular crisis of capitalism);
- technology and critical social theory.
You can view my peer-reviewed publications, and my conference presentations.

Really glad you’ve got your *own* space now, Richard! 😀
Enjoyed your article on Robinson’s transnationals. Helped clarify some important distinctions he’s making between state and global economies. Am currently teaching a colloquium on War and Peace and will definitely come back to your site for more articles. Keep up the good work. – Peter
