Too busy listening to tweet yesterday, looking back 3 things stand out:
1. a real concern about confidence and capability in soft/people skills
2. the tension between scrutiny, integrity and reputation
3. lead by 'walking alongside'
Fuller notes available to friends & family 😀

Getting ready for day 2 of Wonkhe's Festival of HE and reflecting on yesterday's learning covering TEF, GenAI, Leading Change, and perhaps most powerfully the impact of the COL crisis and its impact on students. Impressive speakers, quality debate and great conversations

All packed, and all ready for my first Wonkhe Fest. Early(ish) start... Shrewsbury > Stafford > Senate House for the Festival of Higher Education and looking forward to two days of listening, learning and (re)-connecting. If you spy someone tall, come say hello - it might be me!

#1EdTechEU23

The opening session of #1EdtechEU23 and Rob Abel gives us a great history lesson about standards and innovation. Big shift for IMS Global Learning came with focus on impact. Remember our surprise (and delight) on winning our Platinum Award Emma Purnell 🏆

Two interesting (and funny | not funny) perspectives on generative AI.

According to the other panelists ⁦Lisa Gray⁩ gets it spot on when speaking to the question “how can we help students use and benefit from generative AI”. Be intentional, provide support, promote criticality, use wisely, surface the process.

Today I’m in…

I started to email folks in the #PebblePad community who might be interested in this event being run by the Institute of Experiential and Skills Based Learning - but the list of folks working in this area was just too big, so tweeting instead

I know that I'm biased, but our 'Bashes really are special, and last year's #Minibash in Birmingham was #fabulous ...so good that we actually had to evict some people two hours (No. Honest!) after the official end! Do join us, I promise you won't regret it

Disappointed not to be at the PebblePad Senior Leaders Round table generously hosted by Nottingham Trent University and Kathy Charles with my brilliant colleagues Kenny Nicholl and Alison Poot - undoubtedly lots to show, share, and discuss

We kicked off with a great #PebblePad pre-conference workshop at #durbbu yesterday - impressive turnout despite everything, thanks everyone.
Today I'm presenting with @gregmillerleeds on LTI 1.3 and sundry integrations powering the great initiatives at University of Leeds

I’m in Durham for #DURBBU
Certain amount of irony in this poster in my room!

Don’t miss out on the '21st Durham Blackboard Users' Conference' #durbbu xing-events.com/tw/durbbu21

I’m sat here thinking about today’s #awesome #MiniBash2022 and it’s just occurred to me that I (think I) forgot to include Rachael Baron and Leoni Russell in my closing thanks. It was lovely starting the day in conversation with you both #MiniBash2022
