Student/staff co-creation led to module credits being represented as cake and students as chefs to support the explanation of Synoptic Assessment to new students in Biomedical Sciences. Very tasty and creative approach. #cool #SEC24 @leedsteaching

At the UoL student education conference listening to students talking about what they value in their student journey. Great responses. Just thinking how good it would be if we had this student panel representing us on Senate #SEC24 @leedsteaching

Great blog from @SamLP which encourages us to think about the overarching purpose of STEM education. Let go of holding onto the past, often badged as rigour and look to the joy of our disciplines by putting the human centred soul back. @leedsteaching link.medium.com/xQtkuh4MaFb

It was interesting to hear that Utrecht have removed these distinctions: "Therefore, starting from the 2023/24 academic year, we will work from a single perspective: we see all staff as employees of the university, university staff (UP)." uu.nl/en/research/open-scien…

Thankyou to all the participants in my workshop on EdVee today. My first ever workshop ‘conducted’ in a train carriage. So good to have such a supportive and expert group. It really meant a lot to me to hear your valuable feedback. #ISSOTL23 @ISSOTL and @CAT_UUcentre.

Based on several presentations at #ISSOTL23, including the keynote panel this morning it seems I am not alone in being confused about how roles which include #SOTL are recognised, rewarded and also how such roles are scaffolded towards professorship. #NTF @ISSOTL #parityinHE.

Keynote discussion at #ISSOTL23 …is the balance between the old school tradition of promotion to prof through research papers and citations being challenged by the growing professionalism, collaboration and impact of those involved in Scholarship. (SOTL). @ISSOTL
