Thanks everyone I’m really looking forward to it! 😊

I'm excited to be a part of Project VIEL (Virtual International Exchange and Learning) w/ unis in Germany & Kenya. Next week I'll attend a workshop on 'intercultural aspects in communication' from lecturers in Kenya. No idea what to expect, but it should be interesting! #tcidul

The final blog post, a reflection on the past two years of study.

While I appreciate the tech skills I've learned during the MA, for me, it's the soft skills and confidence I've gained that I value the most. #tcidul

@pili_eLearning Thanks for sharing this, I'm feeling the same way!

I've always been drawn to the 80's and early 90's design aesthetics. I find the colours, patterns & typography so nostalgia-inducing. This is a really interesting breakdown of the graphic design trends of the 80's #tcidul

This week I decided to go 'meta' on the blog - I blogged about my experience in reflective blogging, and how it has helped me learn more deeply #tcidul

Never filled out a census form before and didn’t know when the “Census Night” is that they mention repeatedly throughout the form. Couldn’t find the date anywhere on the form and had to Google in the end. Can’t help but feel like that was a big tech comm oversight 🤔 #tcidul

I've really come to like using Panopto. The UI is so flexible and I think it embodies the essence of UDL - providing multiple ways for students to view, listen to, and engage with content. #tcidul

@Michael_TechA Totally agree, I feel like I’ve run out of ideas for my blog… I’ve been waiting all week for inspiration to strike (it hasn’t). I think I need to just get writing and see what happens!

[Annie @annie_tcel]

I agree, it’s so much easier to implement accessibility features from the start than to fix an already inaccessible website. Some useful resources in here! #tcidul

Creating websites and apps anyone can use is critical—and not actually that hard, writes @pablostanley.

Love this! A great writing tip. #tcidul

don’t just write words

This week's blog: How last year's article rewrite assignment and learning to use plain language helped me ditch some of my worst writing habits!
I'm still guilty of long-winded sentences from time to time. What's your worst writing habit? #tcidul

I've found WebAIM to have great info and resources on web accessibility. I referenced their resources a few times in researching this week's blog. #tcidul https://t.co/zszU5zx77y

[Annie @annie_tcel]

There's so much to learn about web accessibility! This week I blogged about my approach to web accessibility and trying not to get overwhelmed by the abundance of guidelines and recommendations #tcidul

Interesting blog from the U. of Edinburgh: "If we consider digital education as an opportunity to promote flourishing, we have an opportunity to both build into authentic well-being while providing students with the skills to manage problems that come their way." #tcidul

[Teaching Matters @UoE_Teaching]

ark Hoelterhoff discusses the importance of understanding mental health from the perspective of flourishing and meaning-finding and offers reflections on how to approach it within our digital education spaces.

So clever and fun! Perfectly blends my interest in history and design 😍 I think I like Burger King the best, what's your favourite? #tcidul

Studies show that the typeface Comic Sans isn't actually as beneficial to readers with dyslexia as once thought. Turns out, it's the spacing between letters that helps dyslexic readers more than the letter shape or style #tcidul #typography

[Doug Collins @DougCollinsUX]

And before the "it helps with readability and dyslexia" crowd rolls in... no, actually, it doesn't.

I'm really enjoying learning more about UDL. This article is an excellent primer for newbies like me
