Event Details
Are you a researcher, teachers or PG student interested in diversifying your methods and sharing your thoughts on visual media and tools, and their role in the future of education? Join Lancaster University and Centre for Social Futures' extended BRUNCH symposium! Light lunch/drinks provided.
This is a BRUNCH event for staff and PG researchers and teachers, at all stages of their career and across disciplines interested in applying and developing visual and new media in research methods and pedagogies to contemplate their role in education (thus applying "education futures thinking" together).
The event features the following speakers - we will confirm the event schedule shortly, this is a tentative schedule, and you are welcome to attend individual sessions but we hope to spend an extended brunch time with you:
