@Juzel_Rix "It's a faaaaaake!"

@KeithJCarberry Possibly people think that "communist" means "dictatorship"? I can see how western media would lead to that idea

[Lavinia O'Belhans @lavinia_ob]

UWA has proposed to cut the discipline of Anthropology/Sociology, critical for understanding the human condition and solving global problems.

[SocsOutWest @SocsOutWest]

Anthropology & Sociology is among those discipline at the School of Social Sciences that will be completely affected by the organisational changes. We need your support!

"Coming at the issue from the position of the minority exposes the gaps that seem glaring to us and invisible to others. This is the value of Indigenous voice." - Tracy Woodroffe, CDU, on changing Australian education for the better https://t.co/bXjUTTBtp1

It's National Reconciliation Week! Come and check out some of the great language resources the @curtinmakers have on offer! #NRW2018

[Lavinia O'Belhans @lavinia_ob]

This article is my new favourite thing (ask anyone I've talked to in the last 3 weeks). There's a great body of evidence for how to optimally facilitate learning in higher ed!! The next step is moving further towards evidence-based teaching 🤔 https://t.co/9C1mgzeHAl

Not to mention supporting open community literacy!

Nothing better than people freely (libre) collaborating to make services and resources freely (gratis) available. Economic accessibility is such an important kind of accessibility.

Did I mention that I love library people?

[Lavinia O'Belhans @lavinia_ob]

Little free libraries, now at UWA and Murdoch at least!
If you can bear to part with your books (how??) why not donate them to the cause of grassroots serendipity? https://t.co/kff4mb0Ncr

Great talk on theorising Digital Intimacies today from @AmyDobsonCU building on work developed with @nnniccc & @bradyjay.

@unilibrary A literacy of librarians!

[Lavinia O'Belhans @lavinia_ob]

I would love to see strict and mandatory sustainability requirements for commercial products, to hit the problem at the source. Eg. Must prove a certain level of reusability or biodegradability. We could start with standardised reusable takeaway containers plsss https://t.co/rY8X5YO6H1
