"But I have too much content to cover!" @kay_sambell says: students can be tasked to cover content (i.e. annot. bibliographies). I would also add: do you really need all that content? How will that content be relevant in 5 years? But the skills: those will be there forever #AHE22

What does it mean for a teacher to be feedback literate?

David Boud and I developed a competency framework from two Australian projects into assessment and feedback. Now open access: https://t.co/prCHeYRwSR

Yet another reason to use Signal for true privacy and a delightful read as well 🙂

HI EXCUSE ME, I just found out the the prof for this online course I’m taking *died in 2019* and he’s technically still giving classes since he’s *literally my prof for this course* and I’m learning from lectures recorded before his passing

..........it’s a great class but WHAT

[Joy Robbins @manifoldJoy]

Hey @wildyorkshoney, our little pooh bear is still too young to eat your delicious honey but thought you'd appreciate this all the same. Happy Halloween 😊

Racist algorithms are just part of the edtech problem. If it's not worth a teacher's time to read an essay, it's not worth a student's to write it - great insight as always from @hackeducation https://t.co/Qb1gK3s1ec

"Stop looking for models and begin by talking to students." Wonderful piece

[Jesse Stommel @Jessifer]

As long as I’ve been teaching, and as long as I’ve been teaching teachers, I’ve encountered, been flummoxed by, and have cast off models. I have yet to see a single pedagogical model worth its salt. And yet I watch how quickly models spread. https://t.co/N2UVfdPkfv #digped

[Jo Kukuczka (she/her) @jo_kukuczka]

An eye-opening @SRHE73 presentation on Pedagogies of Internationalisation by @SE_Lomer & @JLMittelmeier - very interesting findings and recommendations (also for EAP 'within' HE) @baleap #tleap @EapForSJ

[Jonathan Pie @JonathanPieNews]

Boris accuses Keir Starmer of using misleading Cornonavirus statistics.

Keir Starmer responds with: The figures that the Prime Minister says are inadvertently misleading are from the slide at his press conference yesterday.”

Ooof! #PMQs
