Great session at the The University of Sheffield Education conference from the Aero Eng team on how they build student/staff communities through design teaching. #educonf23

Really enjoyed this session from Dr Selma Omer about an interactive e-learning resource for staff development, around inclusivity, implicit bias and microaggressions. Keen to find out more for EngineeringSheffield #educonf23 @ElevateTUoS

Contributing factors to a successful online learning community. Online session from Dr J Simon Rofe #educonf23 How do you ensure 'early and continual use' of an online space in your context? How do you 'craft' meaningful peer support?

"Impersonal, cookie-cutter assessments – such as a take-home exam or essay – are vulnerable to cheating. They also won’t teach students how to respond flexibly to evolving work environments." Hard agree with all this 👇 #ChatGPT as a change agent. @Dr_SamRigby Matt Carré

For those of you who follow me for health reporting, bear with me as I have a thread that's not on my usual topics. My daughter goes to King Edward VII School (KES) in Sheffield. It's an historic school, the last local authority secondary in the city and a true comprehensive.

Great afternoon running an #ESD workshop as part of the #Engineeringatsheffield The University of Sheffield Sustainable Eng Symposium, with SJ Cooper-Knock and Kate Richardson. Inspirational discussions with colleagues about what we are doing now, where we want to get to and how. #SusEngSym

Really enjoyed creating and facilitating this Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) Workshop EngineeringSheffield, alongside Matt Carré and S J Cooper-Knock. Great discussions with committed and motivated colleagues. #SDGs #ClimateEducation @ElevateTUoS

If you're an MP who's had a 32% pay rise since 2010, and have your meals subsidised by the taxpayer, you're in no position to lecture a nurse who, since 2010, earns £5,000 less in real-terms about pay restraint. There's plenty of money; it's just going to the wrong places.

Our monarchy isn't a social glue. It's a gilded veneer, that makes grotesque disparities of wealth and power seem normal.

Good morning to my colleagues locked out for 3 weeks from today. Anyone else not locked out please donate what you can to support those at the sharp end.

Excellent session and generous resource sharing from Sarah Plumb #gtadev23

If everyone who has been grateful for the NHS over the past 75 years followed and retweeted we’d reach a million by midnight. Please take just two seconds to show you care.

If you're wondering how things are in schools may I present this tweet. Whiteboard pens should be standard not a coveted prize.

Huge thanks to all the NHS staff who are doing their best to keep the health service going despite having 10% fewer staff than we need. We see what you do, and couldn’t be more grateful 💙

In case anyone needs reminding of what Unions can achieve. Thank you to everyone who took action. It makes a difference!!! Never too late to the Union. UCU @shef

We’re here in the rain and not going away! Time for management to come to the table

Our members holding the line at the Wave today. We had hoped to be back at work today but management refuse to negotiate with us to #SettleTheDispute #ucuRISING
