Higher education has been presented as a solution to a host of local and global problems, despite the fact that learning and assessment can also be used as mechanisms for exclusion and social control.

Sue Jackson is Professor Emerita of Lifelong Learning and Gender at Birkbeck University of London, where she was Pro-Vice-Master Learning & Teaching and Director of the Centre for Transformative Practice in Learning and Teaching until she retired in September 2016.
