Excellent blog by @nomadwarmachine.bsky.social. Educators need to be both sage and guide, the key being to know when to be one or the other. You’re absolutely right. Occam’s razor strikes again. @suebecks.bsky.social @profsallybrown.bsky.social @philrace.bsky.social
I enjoyed writing this @jonnybranney.bsky.social #LTHEChat
#Take5 #132 https://aldinhe.ac.uk/the-sage-on-the-side by Dr Sarah Honeychurch from the University of Glasgow. Sarah looks at a supposed dichotomy between didactic & active models of teaching & learning & suggests that, actually, good teaching always includes elements of both. #LoveLD

#LTHEchat 327 Quo vadis teaching, learning and assessment in Higher Education?
Led by Emeriti Professor Sally Brown @profsallybrown.bsky.social and Emeritus Professor Phil Race @philrace.bsky.social We published the first edition of The Lecturer’s Toolkit with Routledge 1998 and there have been four further editions since, published by Phil alone. When we were asked to do a sixth edition for 2025, we had to recognise just how much has changed in the last five years.
