Activity: Attending or organising conference/seminar/workshop › Conference
Description
Isolation/Collaboration, digital innovation. Using padlet to facilitate collaborative writing online. Later published as 'Writing Inside and Outside the Boxes' (Writing in Education 56 Spring 2022).
'The Covid-19 pandemic has forced us all to adapt to new ways of working and, indeed, engaging with the world in both the personal and global spheres. Whilst adopted purely pragmatically, these adaptations have initiated changes both in our creative practices and in our conceptualisation of, and relationship to, these practices. In this session, Amina Alyal (Senior Lecturer in English at Leeds Trinity University) will consider online creative responses to writing in lockdown, Oz Hardwick (Professor of English at Leeds Trinity University) will consider the importance of material artefacts in a virtual world, and there will be writing exercises which build upon these ideas.'
