    Principal focus of the project: 

    This Action Research project, FAB2 ‘Opening the Arms’, was used to evaluate the effectiveness of this model of digital resilience, to identify further measures that could be taken to improve digital resilience and influence digital strategies.

    What is this about and what were the main findings: 

    The project concluded that practitioners should explicitly teach the FAB Model of Digital Resilience, to provide a framework and vocabulary for students to articulate their needs and have permission to be at whatever stage they were. Other powerful strategies identified through the project were: • Establish a Digital Strategy for Teacher Education programmes. • Introduce a pre-course ‘hackfest’ for digital exploration • Limit introducing new tech mid-year • Ration ‘Digital Nurse’ (Longdon, Monaghan, Mycroft 2015) 1:1 sessions, to limit dependency. • Run regular rhizomatic ‘pop-up’ sessions, on and off-line, in negotiation with students
