Attended my first @issotl.bsky.social session today - to discuss 'Engaging with scholarship on teaching focused roles - what’s changed in the past decade?'.
Met some fantastic teaching-track colleagues and it was great to discuss the progress and change we've seen in these roles.

Latest news in an unfolding self-inflicted disaster, not just for UK universities but for the UK itself. One of our genuinely world-class sectors is being trashed, with all that means for UK economy, soft power, scientific & cultural life. 'World-class' isn't, for once, blimpish hyperbole ... 1/2
The university cutting jobs today is Lancaster, which may lose about 400 more roles. Every single day in Higher Education is like this. Why won't someone stop the madness?

Uni must make job cuts as falling student numbers mean £30m. savings must be made
Lancaster University has revealed it needs to make a significant number of job cuts as it seeks to save £30m. in the financial year, partly due to falling student numbers.

Today's complaint about the AI in education discourse: Too much of it is framed around a future that is going to happen to us, as opposed to seeing the future as something we may have some agency to shape. I reject the deterministic view of AI, particularly genAI. It's a tool, not our master.

Great time at the EDI Research Centre’s End-of-Year showcase today.
We were there presenting our research on increasingly student engagement with assessment feedback. Some really good discussions about how to take the work forward and influence practice.
