Dear All

Several people kindly responded to the request below, for using digital media in research/ consultation with children and young people. We received some great information, and as the original email said, wanted to circulate to all the full list. Any and all additions welcome! (Some attachments were left off to avoid an overly heavy email, but you could follow these up as indicated by source.)

Should you be interested, one of the training presentations was given by Ollie Bray and his slides can be found at http://olliebray.typepad.com/olliebraycom/2010/05/digital-technology-children-and-young-people-edinburgh-university-presentation.html

Thank you once again. The training was very useful (thank to everyone who participated) and we will be doing it again next year. 

Yours sincerely

Kay Tisdall

Dear Colleagues

Some of you may be aware that Susan Elsley and I are piloting a new 2 day training course in May, on using digital media in research/ consultation with children and young people. http://www.crfr.ac.uk/cpd/digitalmedia.html

We want to put together web resources, for this course - and wondered if list members would have advice. Perhaps this might be a report you have written or used, some nifty public example of using digital technology, or advice. 

In our existing Listening to Children course, we circulated this mailing list and others and gathered in an amazing number of 'top tips' about research with children and young people. They have been very popular and some (with authors' permission) are now published in the Sage textbook we put together. *We wondered if people might again have some 'top tips' in terms of using digital technology, that they would want to share with others.* This could just a short statement: your reflections, something you'd never do again, or something that really worked for you, etc. We would ensure that your name and affiliation stayed with the quotation (unless you wanted to be anonymous!) and we would use these in our teaching and training. 

If you were willing to share either or both a resource and top tip(s), we'd be delighted to put these together and circulate them around the list for all. 

Thank you for your consideration.

Yours sincerely

Kay Tisdall
