My series of 'Researchers and social media' workshops is starting up again in April (Deakin folks, you can register here for the 1st one: www.eventbrite.com/e/researcher...) It's hard these days to teach social media. It's such a fraught space, but I think there's still value. #DeakinRDA

Jane Calvert is discussing the importance of STS in the classroom. She quotes Callard and Fitzgerald (2015): Interdisciplinarity can be a way of "perturbing the existing order of the world". That sounds more important now than ever #SSNbooktalk
