Digital Displacement : Re-inventing Embodied Practice Online During the COVID-19 Pandemic

This book conceptualises the novel notion of ‘digital displacement’: the sudden pivoting to online technology in education caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.

The book documents this historical phenomenon in education and discusses the consequences for educator practice and educational strategies, in particular arts-based educators.

Its content and scope cover both practice-based and academic frameworks, offering a scholarly investigation of the effect of the pandemic on embodied work, including drama, music, voice, dance and film, through a series of seven case stud-ies.

The book also examines embodied online practice with a view to how COVID-19 has changed this in the long term.
