Having a super fun week doing filming on AI and education with colleagues across subjects. Big thanks to Rushana, Rohin, Alix, James and Lin for sharing their insights. And to Amy for all the production!

Such an important topic to consider - take a moment to read Martin's post below!
I went to two Accessibility events in June, both featured AI heavily. I've consolidated thoughts here.

I guess the blog post is about cutting through the hype to find the humanity and ensuring "nothing about us without us" - disabled folk need to be front and center of any solutions given to them.

Well done Fraser! 😀
Like many academics, I'm still in this job in no small degree because I enjoy being told I'm clever, & with that in mind, it's nice to have some extra letters after my name (FHEA) and to have had my teaching practice recognised by being longlisted for UoB Create scheme's Outstanding Fellow award!
