@tomstafford Much philosophical fun!

@LindaKKaye @mariapage yes please Maria can you share with me as well?

@markus_eichhorn It is possible that what students are actually ‘demanding’ is the choice to attend face to face teaching …

@pannapacker asked what academics would do if they left HE - respondents said they would do the work that drew them to academe (reading, writing, and teaching) that they can't do because there is not enough time, and what they value most is the least rewarded

[Kirsten Bartlett @kturtlekeeper]

@vijisathy @bethmcmurtrie is spot on! And unforntuately where oportunities for professional development are offered faculty have no time to engage with them or work with promotion criteria that would offer real reward for effective teaching via peer assessment

[Kirsten Bartlett @kturtlekeeper]

@bethmcmurtrie identifies the underlying challenges in tackling cultures related to teaching in HE; namely the lack of training, status and reward for engaging in effective teaching and offers some ideas for change https://t.co/i04HeOmmRZ

Just happened across this guy - I like the simplicity of his messages! https://t.co/MIHg9P5IGN

Insightful article from @chronicle staff are thinking about leaving academia because the "sheer brute force" of making teaching work without resources results in the 'feeling that one is doing a poor job despite all the effort' https://t.co/F3z06kY3mo

@mark_pendleton @DrMJCWarren Would love to see some pics if you get permission ...

A study that combines my interests in stereotypes and language to demonstrate how syntax may affect acquisition of gender stereotypes!

Saying that girls are “just as good” as boys at something can actually lead the listener to conclude that boys are naturally better, and that girls must work harder to equal them

Only losers focus on excellent science. Better to cook the books, spin the wheel and trust to cronies, say Robert de Vries and John Jerrim https://t.co/NzcEelEdsu via @timeshighered #TrumpsLastDay #InaugurationDay

@ruthnibheolain @CarlessDavid I'm getting students to create their own marking criteria, based on assignment exemplars, that can be used across a programme

[Kirsten Bartlett @kturtlekeeper]

@Sam_Marsh101 Yes! this was our plan until promises were made to students!

[Kirsten Bartlett @kturtlekeeper]

@EmBlakey @ESRC This work is very much needed Emma it’s great that you finally get to do it! Congratulations

[Kirsten Bartlett @kturtlekeeper]

@BeckySelwyn @AdvanceHE @CarlessDavid But we are planning to introduce exemplars after a first draft for our 1st years next year - it would be great to compare notes!

[Kirsten Bartlett @kturtlekeeper]

@BeckySelwyn @AdvanceHE @CarlessDavid We are currently using exemplars to motivate understanding of marking criteria for lab reports - we ask students to write their own criteria to distinguish between exemplars that represent a 2:1 and a first

If you've got 5 mins consider doing Lizzie's survey on confidence intervals ...

[Dr Lizzie C @Lizzie_Psych]

🔊 Are you a psychologist trying to keep up with changes in statistics, like adding #confidenceintervals to your results? Love them? Hate them? Totally neutral? Confused more than anything? Please take my short & sweet survey! Link ➡️https://t.co/23TcwySLC0 #AcademicChatter

[Kirsten Bartlett @kturtlekeeper]

And I couldn’t agree more!

@Jessifer explains why he objects to being asked for the 'silver lining' for higher education in the era of COVID19 instead we should "look around and say, “Who is struggling and how can we help them?” https://t.co/Brv2cztoAu
