Thanks to the keen tutors who came along to my session this evening – you were great to work with. Here are the main slides I used: Dublin-Kings-Inn-2019-w.pptx (681 downloads) Thanks for joining in so well in the various activities. Remember that the link to Royce Sadler video can be followed from the slides, and the various downloads I mentioned.

This Symposium was terrific – thanks to everyone who made it so, with 90 colleagues attending and presenting, and really enjoying themselves.
I contributed  a short workshop on ‘Beyond the tyranny of learning outcomes?’ and the main slides I used are here: ANTF-2019-w.pptx (766 downloads)

(Postscript: sorry not to stay till the very end of the Symposium, but I got to the Sage, Gateshead in good time for the concert of Mozart’s 3rd Violin Concerto played to perfection by Thomas Zehetmair, who then conducted an exceptional performance of Bruckner’s 6th Symphony, all broadcast on Radio 3 – use BBC Sounds to catch up if you wish).

I enjoyed working with you this afternoon. Here are the main slides I used, including those at the end which you might choose to revisit when you think further about reinventing assessment:  UNN-2019-w.pptx (618 downloads)
No Tweets were received – this is really unusual – did I not leave you long enough to jot down the hashtag?

I enjoyed working today with colleagues from UCLAN School of Medicine and Dentistry again, this time on reinventing assessment. The main slides we used are here, including a link to a very convincing MOOC interview with Royce Sadler, adding a great deal to many of the things we were thinking about.  UCLAN-2019-3-w.pptx (664 downloads)
Thanks to getting a lift to the station, I got an earlier (comfortable) Glasgow train, and had 50 minutes at Carlisle where I enjoyed a bite of lunch, before getting the Newcastle train.

It was a real pleasure working with you today on all sorts to do with learning, assessment, feedback and teaching. You made me really welcome, and your enthusiasm and passion for learning was excellent. Here are the main slides I used – and the ones I mentioned as homework for you at the end.  Glion-2019-w.pptx (804 downloads)

Sally and I had a great time working with a group of colleagues at the magnificent venue of Cumberland Lodge on 17th-18th January, on various writing projects they were involved in. We ran various sessions (we did not charge for these), but the main point was allowing colleagues to get on with their writing – and the feedback shows that they did indeed succeed with this. We took a selection of slides with us to support the sessions we ran, and all of these slides are here (but we only used some of them):  Cumberland-lodge-writing-residential-17-18-january-2019-W.pptx (622 downloads)

Happy New Year to everyone.
Sally and I have had a great time at CIT these two days, along with Michelle Morgan and Kay Sambell, where we’ve run sessions on everything from student engagement, assessment and feedback, and HEA Fellowships. We’ve been made most welcome by everyone, and have thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, and hope to be back soon. The slides and handout from my little session on ‘Looking After Yourself’ are here, and the products of the post-it exercise we did together.
