Activity in practice:

 Academic: Sarah Longair

School: School of History & Heritage

Sarah Longair helped her students create an online virtual event by choosing six objects from physical & online spaces as well as collections. Each student wrote a 100 word label for each object with an introduction to the whole collection. Students were able to use presentation tools to share the information with the public. An essay was also created to explain their choices of object and why they created that collection.
