Sorry to miss my favourite conference this year, with some many of the topics close to my heart #OER25
Managed to make it one piece to #OER25 in London this week. I was on hand to deliver a workshop developed with @slowtech2000.bsky.social and assist with workshop on @altuk.bsky.social Framework for Ethical Learning Technology.
