Photography, remembering,  forgetting and distributed cognition

Tim Fawns / Education, Edinburgh
Thursday 4th October 4pm T-Room, 1st Floor Evo House
 
The taking, organising and sharing of photographs plays an important role in how we remember (and forget) life. In this talk, I present the findings and theoretical framework from my PhD thesis and then raise some interesting ideas and questions about authenticity, autonomy and the potential of learning to augment autobiographical memory.
 
Dr Tim Fawns is an Academic Coordinator on the MSc in Clinical Education and part-time tutor on the MSc in Digital Education. He is also the director of the international Edinburgh Summer School in Clinical Education. His main academic interests are in education, technology and memory.
