This book conceptualises the novel notion of ‘digital displacement’: the sudden pivoting to online technology in education caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. The book documents this historical phenomenon in education and discusses the consequences for educator practice and educational strategies, in particular arts-based educators. Its content and scope cover both practice-based and academic frameworks, offering a scholarly investigation of the effect of the pandemic on embodied work, including drama, music, voice, dance and film, through a series of seven case stud-ies. The book also examines embodied online practice with a view to how COVID-19 has changed this in the long term. Erika Piazzoli is an assistant professor in Arts Education at Trinity College Dublin, the University of Dublin, Ireland. Her practice and research include drama, music and dance in second language education; arts-based methods and embodiment in language teacher education.
