Amazing insights on edupreneurial leadership from @EADTU #ihe2024

'i have this on my wall behind me in my office. And when I am angry, or desolute, I look at it, and I know why I am rector.'

[Professor Kate Lister @KateMarburg]

I am loving being at @EADTU #IHE2024 - this fantastic, supportive community of brilliant, empathetic minds is actively shaping the future of distance learning 👏

[Ángeles Sánchez-Elvira Paniagua @asanchezelvira]

Great! an opening Keynote of @KateMarburg at the @EADTU #IHE2024 on Diversity and Positive learning

There's only one Attendance Contract needed in England's schools right now.

@bphillipsonMP & @educationgovuk, you'd like to crack down on school absence.
Okay.
But first, you need to crack down on the things schools do which stop kids from learning.

Let's take a tour...

[Mental Health Foundation @mentalhealth]

It's World Mental Health Day! 🌍💜

It’s a day to talk about mental health and show everyone that mental health matters.

We all deserve good mental health. 💜

[Jim Dickinson @jim_dickinson]

This is the sort of thing that happens when you have a national strategy for student health https://t.co/ssAbs6JLIB

[Professor Kate Lister @KateMarburg]

@SoVeryBritish My kids' school is closed due to a power cut. They're having the best Monday ever 😆

[EHRC @EHRC]

Following the judgment in the University of Bristol v Abrahart case, we have published guidance explaining what higher education providers must do to comply with equality law relating to disability.

[EHRC @EHRC]

Our guidance sets out what higher education providers must do to comply with equality law.

Waiting for a student to come forward and ask for reasonable adjustments is not enough. Universities need to proactively support their disabled students.

[Professor Kate Lister @KateMarburg]

@deathtospinach Sending love, Becky. Remember how fantastic you are, even in the darkest moments xx

[Professor Kate Lister @KateMarburg]

@charduck @LittleHardman I was in Surrey and I did! Only for a term, thankfully, I wasn't a fan. 😆 I'm 44, we must have done it in the late 80s.

Really pleased that @pawley_susan ‘s and my paper on student community is out https://t.co/acRut0EvtW

(Spot the person late to academia here - having a paper is still v exciting !)

[Queens R. Made @QueenRMade1]

🙏🏿Take the time to watch this in honor of #MichaelaDePrince. Though she grew up in the ashes of unimaginable horror, pain, & tragedy, like dust she rose. Fo her life to end so abruptly at the age of 29 is heart wrenching. How can life be so cruel!😔💔💔😞

[U-Belong @UBelongProject]

Settling into university is tough.

Even by the second semester 60% of students are telling us that they miss their family.

We've worked with students to develop resources to help students settle into university:

[Wonkhe @Wonkhe]

NEW on Wonkhe: The number one way to accommodate disabled students is by giving them extra time - but it's increasingly time they don't have. Jim Dickinson runs the numbers and assesses the impacts https://t.co/1h38IQrObZ

[U-Belong @UBelongProject]

Our data shows there are a whole load of students who never drink. Only a third of students are drinking on a weekly basis, or more frequently

Yet, so much of the freshers' media is alcohol related

It is time for Welcome to Uni strategies to catch up

[U-Belong @UBelongProject]

There are a large minority of students, over a quarter, who are struggling with their finances.

We've worked with students to put together advice and guidance to help students manage the cost of living at university.
