The Animated Inclusive Personae

Each character or Animated Inclusive Personae will have a biography which shares their personal and educational details and is based around motivations and frustrations. It also includes a set of 'tags' which as the project develops will help users navigate these personae based on the characteristics that are important for inclusion and for use in teaching, learning, and service delivery.

These tags include the clubs and societies that they are involved in, faculty and departmental codes, information on courses or projects that they are involved in, and personal characteristics that are important. For example, AA denotes the Attributes and Aspirations programme and 'fif' denotes that the character is the first in their family to enter university.

The presentation and development of these characters is still a work in progress so please bear with us.
