Delighted to have shared University of Stirling teaching impact award with such fantastic colleagues, especially Dr Kylie Bradfield. Though technically my 3rd year in a row winning it, this year means more - AY20/21 was truly a collaborative effort! Stir Man School Stirling Learning & Teaching Enhancement #stirlt21

Super happy to see that my paper is getting coverage. And surprised to have found out that it was also covered in The Times last weekend. Some thoughts on trailed policy response 1/4

Want to study undergraduate #economics where innovative, research-led teaching is underpinned by real world application? Don't take our word for it - we've just been voted top 3 in the UK for student satisfaction and 1st in Scotland, both for the second year running! #NSS2021

Really enjoyed contributing my views for this 👇We spoke quietly of the uncomfortable truths of assessment that existed pre-pandemic: authenticity and integrity. As our campuses awaken, we revert back to type at our peril. University of Stirling UoS Communications
