A3 I think using their time well is part of fairness, they put a lot of time into it - so it should be something where they develop skills and knowledge, and in some cases things that are directly useful for their professional progression. #LTHEChat

A4 I think when teaching teams are working well and closely together you can get a really strong shared understanding of assessments and what 'good' looks like. When teams are fragmented and don't communicate well there isn't that shared view. #LTHEChat

A6 I think this is a fantastic opportunity for a reset on assessment - we should take it. It gives us a strong case for the kind of real world, engaging and rewarding assessments we could design - and to justify the time needed to make them work #lthechat

Rewarding morning in Bristol working with PhD students from across the south west about career transitions , choice and change. Hosted by Mshed, which has transformed from working dock to cultural hub. Vitae #HigherEd

A2 I think here is a lot more we could talk about with co-creation and pick up we are back from the summer break. Would be interested to hear more about co-creation in relation to sustainability - often something that is done to students not co-created #LTHEchat #AdvanceHE_chat

A3 The key technologies and platforms are largely controlled by large technologies companies motivated by profit - this jars with our first two questions and discussion about the welfare of and priority to our students - not a big tech priority #LTHEchat #AdvanceHE_chat

A4 Talked to an Australian Uni this morning (early). They were wondering if they had time for incremental change to the curriculum when programmes came up for review. They are already impacted on campus by wildfires, extreme heat, heavy rainfall events and flooding. #LTHEChat

If any of you are around in person.. Day 1 of the Advance HE learning and teaching conference next week will be focused on Sustainability - Keele - 4th July #LTHEChat

A5 I'm really struck by how these themes connect together. Our move to a low carbon economy will need many more people to have high level digital skills. #LTHEChat

Looking forward to Advance HE Teaching & Learning Conference in Keele. On Tuesday sharing findings from the Sustainable Institutions project: Exploring strategic approaches to embedding sustainability. Session is 13.55-14.35 in Room: CBA1.100 #TLConf23 #highered Iain Cross

Learning about climate change science, developing sustainability competences, changing behaviours and values. Great panel in Keele today #tlconf23 #highered #advancehe

Early September is a time to get back together with colleagues after the break. Enjoyed working today with researchers at Goldsmiths on writing successful funding applications. #highered #researchers #vitae Vitae

Arrived in Manchester for #vitaecon2023 . Enjoyed visiting the people’s history museum before the conference starts. Excellent temporary exhibition on disabled people’s activism.

Looking forward to a second day of great sessions at the vitae conference in Manchester. #vitaecon2023 #vitae #highered

Great second day at Vitae conference. A basic research income, proper careers progression for research professional staff, research funding that rewards collaboration rather than siloed working. A conference that embodies those collaborative values #vitae #vitaecon2023

Ending the week at University of Hertfordshire and meeting my colleagues on the sustainable tourism project. #sustainabletourism #uh #leximancer

Excited to be in Liverpool for the CIEEM autumn conference. Some interesting sessions coming up this morning on: the role of evidence, modernising monitoring, and restoration in a changing climate. #cieem #ecology #modernisingecogy CIEEM

#LTHEchat A2 from organising workshops at ADLinHE and Vitae conferences.

PhD research bridges being a student and an independent and self-reliant researcher. Great to work with the MITGEST participants this week developing professional skills - in Nijmegen- a city with striking bridges #phdlife #phdchat Vitae

Some great conversation today at Wellcome about how to connect researchers - sharing knowledge and skills while working on climate adaptation projects. #highed Vitae
