Part-time learning and teaching academic. Used to learn a lot from overhearing students & staff in the slow UTS lifts. All opinions my own.

I like the inclusion of a future student.

My local NSW Liberal MP just sent me what I assume is meant to be a vote-for-him letter addressed to “Miss”! Seriously???

@f_m_brooks Such sad news. My sympathies to Peter and the family.

@JennaPrice Education back in 1990. 50 assignments, each with interview notes plus interpretive questions. 45 mins-1 hr each to mark. Also a quiz plus final exam. No extra pay beyond 2 hrs tutorial pay. 🙁🙁 Not saying this because I think marking pay is good now.

@JennaPrice 1992, his second home, my first. He had 100% of his share, I had 50% of mine. Bank insisted that he guarantee my loan, although I earned more, and that I took out mortgage insurance!

@SAlexander_UTS Something to go with your floppy disks.

@AmandasAudit (2) Also can prompt for common concerns that tutors have: how to help students learn, what’s expected in the subject each week, assessment & marking, student challenges, administration - IT accounts, rooms, payment etc, coordinator comms

[Jo Mc @liftlearner]

@AmandasAudit Open endeds framed as what helps them as tutors: What’s working well for you now? What would you like more of? What’s not working? Have a focus group, ask them to respond to the questions at the start (Menti) then talk about it as a group. (1)

[Jo Mc @liftlearner]

@JennaPrice And congratulations @SAlexander_UTS - also very well deserved!

@JennaPrice Good service could have been because of his description of what it took to remove blue goo from laundry floor grout??

[Jo Mc @liftlearner]

@JennaPrice An unopened laundry liquid pack split and poured its contents over the laundry shelf, down the wall etc. He complained. We received an apology and a large box with a replacement and multiple other cleaning and personal care products - and a reply paid envelope for the split pack.

@JennaPrice @NSWHealth Best wishes, Jenna. Hope your illness is actually mild and you recover quickly.

Just bought petrol. WW docket said expires 23/10/2021 ie today. Attendant said it has expired - date means it’s valid before the printed date! Huh???

[Jo Mc @liftlearner]

@JennaPrice New lenses last year with anti-fog coating - wipe over before wearing. They work fairly well but not cheap. I also cross over the mask straps to pull the sides down a little then staple the gaps to cope with my face shape and keep nose and mouth covered!
