Refreshing to hear from Christina Pozzi- having been through the education system does not make you an expert in education, schools are not a machine to be fixed. Collaboration with students, teachers is essential for developing useful tools. #EITEdTech25

#EITEdTech25 has started in beautiful Brussels. Looking forward to speaking on the second panel - about student digital skills. We want our students to have the best learning outcomes, and teachers to have the best tools. Start with people, not platforms. ❤️🙏

Lovely 2nd keynote from Bridgette Bewick about compassion in HE. Sadly missing at a whole university level, although glimpses during the pandemic response.

Plenty of food for thought about Assessment Design in an AI world from @phillipdawson.bsky.social keynote. Stressing focus on validity over cheating. There is no such thing as AI-proof assessment. We need a Swiss cheese approach. #DigitalEd25
