While there is a growing knowledge base of how students experience their transitions into and through university, little is known about how they experience the temporal dimensions of their higher education (HE) studies, particularly for culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) students. This article draws on Australian longitudinal research…

This brief explores the use of time-diaries to deepen our understanding of the pandemic's impacts on educational activities including differences across children and over time.
