Vuyo, an AfOx fellow at the University of Oxford and academic literacies lecturer at CPUT in South Africa, reflects on digital literacies and transforming South African Higher Education. This episode of ‘Conversations in Med Ed’ is a departure from the usual Health Professions Education conversations to look at Higher Education more broadly. In episode thirteen we chat with Dr Vuyokazi Mntuyedwa, a current AfOx fellow (in the African Oxford initiative – working with Dr Danica Sims) and academic literacies lecturer from the Cape Peninsula University of Technology in South Africa. Vuyo briefly shares her journey from a first-generation student to university lecturer before diving deeper into her AfOx research on digital literacies of first-year students transitioning from high school to university. She ends by reflecting on 16 June, Youth Day in South Africa, calling on students to be proactive in seeking educational opportunities and working with universities to transform Higher Education. Burning buildings mentality culture when there is a disagreement between the students and the management must end. If you would like to connect with Dr Mntuyedwa, you can reach out to her on LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-vuyo-mntuyedwa-phd-157477b8/) or email her at: vuyo.mntuyedwa@gmail.com.
