In our monthly Team Meeting today we each shared a personal goal we want to achieve before the winter break.
The discussion of energy toll, workloads, boundaries, and balance, promoted me to reshare the padlet I made, on saying no.

Our Student Learning Experience (SLE) model was launched in October 2023, developed by students in partnership with sector staff. It is a key sector benchmark in Scotland's TQEF, aiming to put the experiences of students at the centre of the sector’s approach to quality.

Tip: a #EduChat can be a lot of posts in 30 minutes on a hashtag.
Not interested in the conversation?!
Click the 3 dots on any post and choose to Mute words
Put in the hashtag and mute for 24 hours.
(I wish 1 hour was an option)

This is a good example. Perhaps more widely, being a bridge between certain research/policy/jargon/strategy/expertise etc and practitioners across a range of departments.
