The state of our university system is 😱. People are losing their jobs and courses are being cut at a heartbreaking rate. We need artists and creative work and some career areas depend on degrees. What’s going on?

I think what a lot of these unsuccessful interventions have in common is that they are about changing kids within schools, rather than changing the school itself. The school becoming a channel for reaching lots of kids, rather than the school environment itself being a target for intervention.

Having a focus on processes rather than content in learning situations helps a wider range of learners develop a sense of competence. 😊

Great discussion Re the EP role, & representation.
Mainly people who are supported by parents or partners able to apply. Limiting diversity.
I waited ~15 years to apply as 1yr masters changed to 3 yr doctorate. I’d stayed as P/T so the training fees were nearly a match to my income.
