- Abstract (EN)
- Highly valued by staff and students alike, fieldwork is a defining characteristic of most taught courses in geog-raphy, earth, and environmental sciences. Nevertheless, fieldwork can present challenges for some people – including those with disabilities, seen and unseen. The More Inclusive Fieldwork (MIF) project, funded by the Natural Environmental Research Council, explores how virtual reality (VR) can be used to support in-person field experiences for all participants, ideally as part of a broader accessibility and inclusion strategy.
