Got a rather lovely early Christmas present last week: learned I passed my MSc in Educational Research with Distinction, with the dissertation on staff goals and perceptions of bioscience teaching labs getting 95%! Many, many thanks again to all those who participated ☺️

Feeling a bit rough with my first cold in the last couple of years, but that hasn't stopped my enjoyment of this excellent and clear book from Daisy Christodoulou on how teachers and technology can best work together to support students' learning. Strongly recommend.

To mark the end of Pride Month, here is a short thread to celebrate some trans scientists and their amazing contributions. These are great scientists, and great people who have risen above transphobia to succeed - that's worth celebrating. #Pride2022

Hi academic staff friends & followers! If your students are likely to use LearnSci resources in the next year, maybe sign up and/or share this? Last year pilot partners said they found the process “seamless” and “very straightforward” More info: ow.ly/IUuQ50K2jLl Ty!

Thrilled to have had a presentation accepted on my dissertation topic: staff perceptions of bioscience undergraduate teaching labs. Looking forward to the event!
