<span lang="EN-GB" style="color:black">The aim of this seminar is to initiate a dialogue about the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic and the associated �pivot� to remote or blended education on the academic community, with particular focus on staff and student
well-being and the core university missions of teaching and research. The seminar will commence with three 15-minute presentations by academics working in this area, followed by discussant contributions representing a student, a digital education, and a union
perspective. There will be an opportunity following all the presentations for Q&A and a facilitated discussion. </span></p>
