Introduction.
On December 15, 2021, the Digital Education Team at UAL hosted Presence and belonging in Digital Education, a day conference for UAL colleagues to share their experiences.
The event brought together academics/technicians/support staff from all colleges at UAL to present and discuss current and emerging digital education practices within the theme of presence and belonging.
The presentations and case studies explored the following types of questions:
* How do we define presence and belonging? What impact do they have on student learning?
* In what ways can we foster and maintain a sense of presence and belonging online?
* How can digital tools, spaces and practices help support and maintain equality, diversity, and inclusion?

Reimagining conversations with multilingual international students: encouraging participation in digital spaces
Dr.Victoria Odeniyi, Postdoctoral Research Fellow: Reimagining Conversations with Multilingual Students.
This project is concerned with understanding the complexity of language and communication practices in classrooms. This talk aims to open up critical discussion around boundaries and responsibilities for colleagues seeking change. Victoria shares insights and classroom episodes from five months of fieldwork examining online classroom practices. She suggest that new ways of thinking and working are needed which may demand more from universities in order to increase participation amongst ethno-linguistically diverse groups.
