Excited to be speaking at the Online Iatefl #LTSIG Open Forum about addressing AI bias. It’s time to move the conversation beyond shiny AI tools and focus on helping students engage more critically with AI.

New Cambridge Element free to read+download for 4 weeks! A useful read for understanding plagiarism in L2 writing, although I’d expected more on how digital & postdigital landscapes challenge notions of originality & authorship.

Wrapped up to the max for my daily walk today. 6°C but feels like -1 according to my weather app! I’m not a cold weather person, but I love the crisp fresh air and the warmth of my cosy house waiting for me after ☕️🔥 #DailyWalks #Leicester #UK

I feel blessed to be able to work from home. It actually boosts my productivity, not the opposite. I’m also grateful to work in a culture where I feel trusted and not monitored.

But… 👇🏻1/2

Going for a walk won’t solve everything, but it’s hard to think of a problem that feels worse after a good walk🚶🏻‍♀️ #DailyWalks #Leicester #UK

Hey all, do you use #AltText in your images? On BlueSky, you can turn on an ALT text reminder in your accessibility settings and it won’t let you post without it. Because accessibility matters 💙. See screenshot + useful guide below👇🏻 #AltTextChallenge #EduSky

The plane into Luton made two super bumpy attempts to land - being tossed around by the wind. Then circled above the airport for over an hour before finally diverting to Stansted. Now waiting for the buses to take us back to Luton, but honestly, we’re just glad to have our feet on solid ground!

Bluesky user count hits 20 million, with 8 new users joining every second 🎉. Great to see the academic community growing here on this decentralised place. It’s like stepping back into 2008 Twitter, only more mature 😂 #nostalgia bcounter.nat.vg #eduSKY

I'm still recruiting participants for my PhD research on experiences with AI technologies for academic writing. I'm looking for UK university students whose native language is NOT English. Interested (or know of someone who may be)? 👉 cutt.ly/writing23 + please share🙏
