I was at the #SRHE2021 conference today! This was the first time I presented a virtual poster, and the experience was incredibly positive. It was a morning full of enriching conversations with delegates and other presenters! (1/5)

[Retention and Disability in Higher Education @RetAndDisab_HE]

The conversation around this touched on how important it is to consider accessibility and inclusion throughout all the stages of teaching and learning practice. But we also discussed the importance of considering the specific needs and experiences of the individual student. (4/5)

We're kicking off this morning with a virtual poster session - to check out the posters online visit https://t.co/mNTKM52JYH where you can leave a comment. We'll be online until 10:30 for conference delegates who want to speak to our authors #SRHE2021
