Learn from mature students, in their own words and pictures, about how they experience academic reading. This is a workshop sharing pedagogical research practice in which student-participants and Catherine Bates will talk about their experience of using the participatory Photovoice research method to gain deep insight into the mature student experience of academic reading, and to co-create a research project together putting student voice at the centre.

The workshop is linked to an exhibition that can be visited throughout the month of June.

This opportunity will appeal to colleagues interested in developing inclusive teaching practice to support students with academic reading, as well as those looking to learn more about creative, participatory pedagogical research methods that enhance student voice.
