Early Career Network

This Early Career Network seminar showcases research by Lauren and Amelia who are examining, respectively:

  • the university as a space to be exposed to new ideas versus as a space where controversial ideas should be kept out of the ‘safe space’
  • how gestures that co-occur with speech are meaningful and influence student learning from a psychological perspective

This online event will be particularly useful for researchers, early career staff and PGT students.
