For my dissertation, I am examining how children and adults perceive humour in jokes.
However, I need more data!

If anyone knows children in either year 3 or 6 that would enjoy rating jokes, please pass on this link! It is all completed online.

Thanks!

And so, my spring placement with @LNWH_NHS comes to an end!

I've learnt so much, and had some great practice educators, but where did that month go?!

Great first day of placement at Northwick Park Hospital today. Excited to work at three different schools!

Damn, it feels good to laminate again.

Consider me double jabbed, and ready to act exactly the same as I did before.

@ricklikestrees I think we cover this in Year B?

Really important book.

[UCL Giving Voice @UCLGivingVoice]

‘The Reason I Jump’ was written by Naoki Higashida, a nonverbal autistic person, when he was 13. It provides valuable insight into his experiences, perceptions & behaviours, & reminds us that autistic people are individuals with humour, imagination & empathy🦋

Really interesting and important lecture about #Deafculture this morning, thank you @soaringsan! Especially enjoyed learning the existence of BSL puns.

[Kate Shobbrook @KateShobbrook]

Brilliant interprofessional session today with over 90 students from @IDedpsy @ucledpsych @UCL_MScSLS. A few of our reflections for future collaborative working: find out who each other are; ask questions about our roles; share information; find ways of working together.

[Sam Walls @SLTSamW]

I'm looking for articles and journals on children's perception of humour- if you got any, send them my way please! #slt2b

[Hugh Laurie @hughlaurie]

No no no. A 1% pay rise for nurses will not do.

[Sam Walls @SLTSamW]

@AJHSLT Don't even mention essays about word finding difficulties...

[Sam Walls @SLTSamW]

I have strong fears that these memory lectures aren't (following the information processing model) going to make it to my short-term memory, let alone my long-term. #help

@ricklikestrees What about the old guy who runs the waterslide?
