Some thoughts and reflections on hybrid delivery: a thread. 🧵 (TL;DR = pedagogy before tech, equality of learning opportunity crucial, flipped design is your friend) 1/N #onlinelearning #highereducation #TeachEcon #EconTwitter

What a fantastic @coreeconteam Workshop 2024! Really privileged to be able to share how we are going to be using CORE at Forward College to deliver a new exciting Economics major within our liberal arts Open Bachelor’s. Lovely to catch up and hear more about The Economy 2.0 too!

A masterclass in harnessing the relevancy and salience of Adam Smith in modern economics education. Fantastic @economics_net session at the @RoyalEconSoc conference! @FabioArico @ProfEconDenise @danielle_guizzo @ScotEconSoc #RES2023 #SES2023

I'm delighted that my case study about #EAP and #businessEnglish is part of this fantastic guidance document (pp.16-17) by @QAAtweets. I also really enjoyed reading about the great work of colleagues in other UK HEIs! #StudentCentred #HigherEd

Thank you and an absolute pleasure to be invited to speak! A joint effort by all the @StirUni Econ team, especially @Mirko_Moro @heelguru @ahvw73 and @WillemSas!

In the wonderful city of Bath for the @coreeconteam workshop. Fantastic to see student feedback on the draft of the new version of The Economy being considered so dearly. Looking forward to presenting later how we at @StirUni used CORE to transform our degree programme !

Wonderful experience to share joint work with @JenMCowell at @QAAtweets Quality Insights Conference on how co-design with academic skills developers enriches the student learning experience. Including a flexible model of programme design @StirUni #LTHEchat #QIconference23

Well, it was a good run. Covid finally got me for the first time. Day 5 of being positive and no let up in sight. It has been great returning to F2F teaching and meetings, but this did feel rather predictable. A cancelled mini holiday with @JenMCowell next week, too...

I've really enjoyed creating this multimodal personal academic website, including infographics summarising my teaching projects plus short recording clips: https://t.co/wMcwVWAp9X Thank you to everyone who encouraged me to create it! #TESOL #EFL #ESOL #ESL #teaching #researcher

Delighted to find out that I've been promoted to Senior Lecturer at @StirManSchool! Thanks to all my colleagues and mentors for their continued support at @StirUni and beyond! #YouKnowWhoYouAre #BeTheDifference

I'm now a certified Mental Health First Aider, having spent the week working towards a SCQF Level 6 qualification. Within HE, it's not just important to look out for our students, but also our colleagues. #ItsGoodToTalk

My first in-person conference post-Covid at #SES2022 has been massively enjoyable. I forgot how valuable the accidental conversations were. My personal highlight was finally meeting @FabioArico and catching up with other members of the @economics_net after 18 months of Teams!

A real pleasure to be asked to share some thoughts and experiences on sustainable authentic assessment at @QAAtweets #QualityInsights22. An energising discussion! TL;DR = authentic assessment is sustainable for all if students are scaffolded and staff are rewarded for investment

@AdvanceHE_chat A5 #LTHEchat #AdvanceHE_chat Student and staff intersectional identities & characteristics shape their educational experiences immensely - advantages and disadvantages. We need: - kindness - acknowledgement that diversity is important - open & understanding - checking our biases

@AdvanceHE_chat A4. Systematic inequality is unequal education. Different cultures use different types of assignments, so our essays are very different to those in France, Oman, etc. Students from UK private schools generally do better in university entrance exams. #LTHEchat #AdvanceHE_chat

So pleased to be able to share these! Looking at assessment from a student's perspective, this set of bite sized resources covers everything from understanding learning outcomes and the assessment task to making best use of feedback 👇👇👇 #studentsupport #studentsuccess
