It’s been a busy few months in the Soc Dev Lab.
In our September Soc Dev Lab meeting, our Undergraduate Research Assistant, Sania Fatima, presented their findings regarding students’ perceptions of emojis, memes and gifs in higher education. Supervised by Beatrice, Sania conducted one-to-one semi-structured interviews with UK university students before undertaking a Thematic Analysis in NVivo software. The paper is now under review; watch this space! If you would like to find out more information about this project, please contact Beatrice: beatrice.hayes@rhul.ac.uk
