Developed in collaboration with @nuthmani.bsky.social, founder of GC Education Scotland and Lecturer in Primary Education at the University of Stirling. Nuzhat specialises in designing professional development for educators and creates resources to embed values of citizenship and justice in schools.

The resources culminate in a practical exploration of oral history as a discipline. It includes a PowerPoint presentation, hand-outs, and detailed tutorials, providing educators with the support and guidance needed to effectively deliver the Tape Letters module in their classrooms.
