Sues innovative research on disabled childrens uses of digital technologies is becoming increasingly recognised and she is currently working on a monograph entitled: 'Disabled children and digital technologies. Everyday practices in childhood' for Bloomsbury Academic. Sue has led a number of research projects including Expert Perspectives on Creativity and Innovation in European Schools for the Institute of Prospective Technological Studies (IPTS) in Spain;and a major work package designing pedagogical scenarios for engaging classrooms as part of the EU-funded iTEC project (http://fcl.eun.org/itec). Other projects have included research into digital inclusion, digital pedagogy, inclusive pedagogical design, digital literacy, digital innovation and universal design. Sue has been widely published within leading journals in the field including Technology, Pedagogy and Education, Learning, Media and Technology and Studies in Higher Education.

Julie-Ann Sime is a Lecturer in Technology-Enhanced Learning in the Department of Educational Research at Lancaster University, U.K. She is an experienced online educator who has been tutoring postgraduates in networked learning communities for over 25 years. She researches online and networked learning in professional development focusing on: how new technologies (such as games, simulations and virtual learning environments) can be designed and used to support online educators; how learners can develop an understanding of complex dynamic systems; and how to design for personalized learning experiences so that education is more inclusive. In 2016 she was on the steering committee of the 10th International Networked Learning Conference. With a wide range of experience of European industry/academia collaborative research projects (ETIOLE, A-TEAM, VirRad) and networks (Kaleidoscope, MONET, MONET2), she is currently researching into visual and video literacies of educators and the pedagogy of massive open online courses with funding from ERASMUS+ Strategic Partnership in Higher Education.
