I’m at the NERUPI convention today and the theme is ‘building organisational change for equity and widening participation’. @AlitheLyon summarises this perfectly with this quote from her Churchill Fellowship Research.
At the @RAISEnetwork conference today, focused on equity in attainment and student success. After presenting our work on inclusive learning, I’m enjoying other ‘storytelling’ sessions from colleagues from across the sector. #RAISE2024
I’m pleased to be at UCL today with the HEAT research group. It’s always great to network with other research and evaluation folk, and it’s particularly exciting to hear people’s post-entry plans.
Mike Kerrigan, Head of Research and Insights (Access and Participation), @NottmTrentUni discusses institutional data sets, the importance of reducing selection bias, case control matching and propensity score matching #TasoCon24
Spending the next couple of days at #TASOCon24. Looking forward to catching up with colleagues from across the sector. We have been busy already creating a problem tree around null and negative results with peers from @KeeleUniversity and @SalfordUni
@emaslin94’s article has already prompted discussion within our team this morning. A great call to action as Emma urges you to search for your institution’s own definition of commuter students. If you can’t find one ‘then you’re not on your own’.
NEW on Wonkhe: Many university staff will say that their institution has a lot of commuter students – but are they all talking about the same thing? Emma Maslin defines the problem @emaslin94 https://t.co/iTG0FR8Qb7
Today I’m at the #NERUPI event on raising attainment in schools. First up is @paulashwin, quite rightly acknowledging the challenges and tensions we face, particularly around the expectations of universities’ roles in this work.
@livia_scott_ You can wear the ‘stomach’ ones on your back, and most of them do warming and tens. Boots also do a belt tens designed for back pain, but that doesn’t warm, so I guess it depends on the features you want. I find the combination of heat and tens better for my own chronic pain.
2/2…. GP claims injections should continue to be hospital prescribed. I’ve been two weeks without my meds already and no resolution in sight. How can I push them to resolve this? Whose job is it?
1/2 (Medical). Tweeting into the ether in case anyone can offer any insight. I’ve been on oral methotrexate long term, but recently my specialists switched me to injections to aid absorption. They since asked my GP to take over prescribing through shared care, but GP refused…
We have some great jobs up for grabs at @BrilliantClub, including in our expanding research and evaluation consultancy team.
