Another amazing Festival of Learning!

Got to share some of my inclusive practices in workshop delivery, remind people that SpongeBob gifs make for great lecture material AND ended the day with some @LEGO_Group Serious Play!

10s across the board for #KUFoL24

[Faustina (she/her) 🇱🇨 @Faustina_Edward]

Jokes aside, @LEGO_Group sets do something to my brain I can’t explain. 10/10 mindfulness activity! 🥹

Other faves about non-Navigate content 🤣
- Human bingo was great chaotic fun
- Having to get up and speak to people as a first year 👀
- Nice to know Navigate content kept one student in the lecture 🤣

Here’s to the 2023/24 year!

First Future Skills workshops for FBSS-done!

Really enjoyed my first two sessions, but can’t say my throat enjoyed having to extend my voice in large rooms and lecture theatres for the first time since February!

MONTHS of reviewing last year’s work and planning for this year!

[Faustina (she/her) 🇱🇨 @Faustina_Edward]

One of my fave activities of the session was having students in groups of recruiters for their future fields, rank the graduate attributes. Good thing is that there was no wrong answer and that activity made it to memes! 😎 Loved seeing different versions from the two sessions!

@ForensicHelenT @AdvanceHE Will definitely let you know! Already shared it with my team 😅

[Faustina (she/her) 🇱🇨 @Faustina_Edward]

At #TLConf23 and so far in workshops I’ve done Lego Serious Play and made a meme! Very enjoyable Day 1 - such interesting and new ways to engage students!

Already love using gifs, but will I get students to make memes next year as a form of reflection? YES! 🤣 @AdvanceHE

[Faustina (she/her) 🇱🇨 @Faustina_Edward]

Asked this earlier in the morning keynote…Good on @AdvanceHE for starting to move away from using BAME! #TLConf23

[Faustina (she/her) 🇱🇨 @Faustina_Edward]

The term BAME grinds my gears soooo much

[Faustina (she/her) 🇱🇨 @Faustina_Edward]

POC too 🙄

That soap was something special! But I have another one I can’t remember the name but I got it cause it was pink (obviously!) but that oatmeal soap is on my mind!

But anyways, support the ladies on Saturday! Get some sour orange juice and bakes too 😭😭

[Faustina (she/her) 🇱🇨 @Faustina_Edward]

While I’m here, just wanted to let you all know that you should go to @HelenDaughters next FarmHers Market!

When you go, get some soap from FarmHer Mary! My oatmeal soap is on its last leg and tbh it’s upsetting me and my homegirls because I should have gotten more than one bar

[Faustina (she/her) 🇱🇨 @Faustina_Edward]

Part of the team helping choose the next @KUBigRead from the 6 shortlisted books. I’ve read three so far, and I’ve absolutely loved two.

But tell me why I couldn’t put down ‘A Monster Calls’ by Patrick Ness and ended up crying at the end. It’s 11PM

Wanted to get a nice photo with the flag after the Commonwealth Day service but the wind was a true enemy of progress!

[Faustina (she/her) 🇱🇨 @Faustina_Edward]

Took the lift down with some students after a class and one of them told me she planned to watch a movie during the class but because it was me, she didn’t and actually listened.

University students REALLY san hont 😂😂😂

Still not going into academia though 🌚
