Under the ongoing hygiene and travel restrictions of the pandemic, academic researchers have been adapting and extending online methods which existed long beforehand. These have become all the more necessary to engage research sites abroad. In this seminar, OU researchers will have the opportunity to share their recent experiences of such online methods. Short contributions are welcome as well as questions - please email Dr Les Levidow.
