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.
