Tis the season ....

It's been a busy few weeks welcoming pupils from various schools to visit us on campus. Last week we had pupils testing out our Disease Diagnostic Virtual Reality app, while this week pupils have joined us in the teaching lab to learn about infectious microorganisms
@uofgsii.bsky.social

And @socialinfluenza.bsky.social demoing the 'Meet the viruses' VR app and 'Visible viruses' AR app during the Education and Outreach interactive showcase session (He did let others play with them to!)

Final year Hons student Lucy Hunter (supervised by Leighann Sherry) presenting her work on reducing the amount of plastic used in UG teaching labs as part of her internship project

My colleagues are just awesome! Today @nicolaveitchuofg.bsky.social presented her work on EDI in UG education on behalf of the UofG team and collected an EDI award from the @microbiologysociety.org

I recently had a clear out and rediscovered my @cvrinfo.bsky.social public engagement t- shirt. So I wore it to yoga. Does that count as outreach?!

First session of the semester in the UofG Multiuser VR suite. Today we welcomed students on the @uofgsii.bsky.social @uofgmvls.bsky.social Diagnostic Technologies and Devices masters course. They are learning how to diagnose a viral infection using qPCR in VR

A cracker joke fit for a microbiologist 🤒🦠💊

One of the nice things about teaching so late in the Semester is having the pick of teaching spaces. For our final session of the year we're in one of the awesome @uofgasbs.bsky.social active learning spaces. Added bonus of checking out how the construction of our new lab building is going 🏗️👷‍♀️🦺

Really excited to have been invited to share our work on using #VirtualReality to teach our UG students practical laboratory skills alongside our amazing colleagues in the @uofglasgow.bsky.social School of Education

It's that time of year when my course prep looks a little different to normal 🐛🪲🦗

Hello Bluesky 👋 I love teaching and public engagement. Today I'm combining both and teaching PGRs/ ECAs how to engage with the public. Such a treat to be doing it in the @uofglasgow.bsky.social ARC
