@IoECitPGCE @WestminsterAca These two immersive VR films; Virtually There (knife crime) and Cleanskin (grooming & exploitation), aren’t easy to watch. But these future citizenship teachers engaged deeply and shared powerful reflections. #VRforEducation #CitizenshipEducation #KnifeCrime #CSE

The power of film making to tell stories about & from multiple perspectives, to provide tools to use in teaching to combat discrimination is essential. Thanks Leon Oldstrong & Harrison Daniels @SolarisTwo for sharing this @IOE_London, your creativity & experiences improve lives.

Invigorating to talk to Leon Oldstrong @SolarisTwo & learn about new projects, like Weathering: youtube.com/watch?v=H067m1… a deeply powerful exploration of racism as experienced by a nurse & educator in the UK at the height of the pandemic after the murder of George Floyd @AJEnglish

Last week’s news of Child Q shows yet another example of the violence the state exacts on the Black community in the UK. For every horrifying, high profile incident like this, there are hundreds of others who are suffering at the hands of racist institutions like @metpoliceuk

For many Black people in the UK, the COVID-19 pandemic exposed deep-seated racism across the country. On the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, find out more about the experiences of Black people across British society: aje.io/Weathering

Virtual reality puts a new spin on #medialiteracy. The next edition of @ACitizenshipT journal will start to think about this, we @IoECitPGCE with @SolarisTwo will consider it in the new year with virtuallytheremovie.com If you get a chance, do try VR out...Endless possibilities.
