“Visual Pedagogies” book launch summary

Both events of the online book launch of “Visual Pedagogies in Higher Education: Between Theory and Practice” were a great opportunity to share the work included in the volume. It was wonderful to see many colleagues attending these events, asking questions and discussing. I was happy to see those of you who I know and have been collaborating with on various occasions, and many persons who I did not know before but who were intrigued by the work related to visual pedagogies. Let’s the ideas around visual pedagogies continue to evolve into new and further collaborations!

A visual summary of both events was captured visually by Iryna Molodecky, one of the contributors to the volume. She kindly agreed for this image to be shared here. In case you want to know more about her work, check Iryna’s website (of course, in addition to her chapter in “Visual Pedagogies”).
