The Sussex Digital Pedagogies Toolkit was launched in October. This toolkit has been created collaboratively by a staff-student research team through the Education and Innovation fund. It uses material from a series of online workshops with members of the Sussex community, including faculty, professional services and students. View all posts in this series.
