In 2020 we had to revamp the ID4216 course Context & Conceptualisation (or C&C for short), which meant turning a series of a dozen lectures and self-run workshops for 200 students online. From lively, physical studio work to remote, virtual collaboration with Zoomlinks and Miroboards. We captured what we learned in the process in three video lectures, one on the course structure in general, one on video lectures, and one on workshops. //Pieter Jan, Froukje, Erika, Priyanka, and Corrie
