Keep Calm and Carry on Learning


Keep Calm and Carry on Learning

In March 2020, the lockdown impact of Covid-19 was immediate.  While businesses reconsidered their future, everyone from factory workers, corner shop owners and those working in the hospitality industry were forced into their homes, to think about their own future and teach their youngsters as access to education moved online. 

 

Did the lockdown encourage lifelong learning? Were you encouraged to learn a vocational skill or advance your own education journey?  Education played an important role within our communities, even though we may not thinking we are learning at the time.  Keep Calm and Carry on Learning is a community based project led by the learners’ own stories.  University of Wolverhampton Learning Facilitator Verity Hilton will celebrate the impact that education and learning has in our every day lives and what can be learnt from the enforced experiment in "remote learning".

 

Whether it's a new use of technology, a short course you have undertaken or the start of more formal education we want to hear from you.  You can share your experiences through stories, poems, photo's, drawings or even video and voice notes here

A culmination of your stories will be exhibited at the University of Wolverhampton stand at this year's Staffordshire County Show and then be shared online.  

Dates for the County Show are Wednesday 25th August and Thursday 26th August 2021.
