Hey! So Glad You're Here.

Our original project establishes the foundational, pioneering, and ongoing contributions made by South African writers to global modernisms. This research is now generating unforeseen educational, social and cultural benefits for 16-18 year-old learners and their teachers by supporting changed content and methods of teaching of the English Literature A-Level at 15 Further Education (FE) providers in the UK. ​ Through our programme of activities we embed research-led and decolonising content, delivery and support into English Literature education.   We focus on two sectors: education (primarily 16-18 year-old learners and their teachers), and public audiences interested in cultural heritage and global literatures. ​ The primary aim of the project is to (co-)create a world-class and freely available online educational resource about South African literature, hosted on this bespoke platform. We have two distinct streams: a) expert-led audio, video and written content, including studio-recorded lectures delivered by academics and writers, video lessons, downloadable classroom resources, quizzes and other interactive activities; and b) co-produced content with international 16-18 year-old learners, including AI animations, podcasts, videos, online galleries, visual texts, blog posts, etc.
