What an article in today's Conversation: "The old adage, dating back to the Cold War, is that women are too emotional to be trusted with the nuclear button. But the men in the current White House might be the most emotional leadership group the US has ever had."

Everyone right now when they check the news 🫣😱

Check out our new blog post! We share findings from our latest paper, showing how writing groups foster confidence, academic identity, feedback literacy, and resilience. Importantly, we demonstrate the importance of these groups in supporting students' capacity to publish. #AcademicSky #ScienceSky

Paid for a medium latte, got a large one instead. Don't know if it is just a mistake or whether the barista saw I needed an extra boost after Orientation Week, but #blessed 😇 #AcademicSky

Just emailed over 7000 students to welcome them to the Faculty and share useful resources... I must have checked the content about a bazillion times 🙃 #AcademicLife #AcademicSky

Women Leaders "Women are expected to promote gender equality and show communal behaviour, yet those who do so...are less likely to be selected for leadership." Derks et al. (2026). Don't rock the boat! Do men prefer women leaders who support the status quo? doi.org/10.1111/bjso...

Sometimes you just need to give yourself permission to rest. Lazy day sleeping on the couch with the dogs sleeping under the aircon. 💤😌

Listen to me talking about some of my recent research ⤵️

I do think "tech bro" is an overused term but I saw a tech bro at a big evil tech company talking about how much he hated it when people called him that and ever since then I make a point of using it whenever at all relevant.

Results of the Australian university census on staff wellbeing. All universities recorded high or very high risk psychosocial climates. 76% of university staff reported high- to very high-risk levels of psychosocial safety: more than double the general workforce. #AcademicSky #AcademicMentalHealth

Finished the first chapter of my research paradigms handbook today 💪🏻🎉 #AcademicSky

It's not even midnight and we're already at "Deport Elmo."

I wrote this open access paper with Dave Boud and Phill Dawson to help educators align assessments with the kinds of learning they care about. We talk about 4P's (product, process, performance & practices) and what these different forms of evidence can tell us. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

I'm looking forward to speaking about humanities and cultural education in the digital age at this dual-site event next month ... if you are in the Hong Kong (18th March) and Zhuzai (20th March) areas then do come along! sa.hkbu.edu.hk/en/ccl/event...

Today, thanks to Altmetric, I discovered my PhD research has been referenced in 8 patents 😮🎉

What you don’t see still costs energy, strength, and care. Today was a hard hidden disability day 🌻 Tonight is for relaxing and letting go. Logging off and leaning into cosy vibes.

Congratulations to Hongmin (Maria) Yu who successfully and expertly defended her thesis "Exploring Atmospheric Autoxidation of Organic Emission from Volatile Chemical Products". Thanks to @jessekroll.bsky.social, and @caltech.edu Profs Mitchio Okumura, and Rick Flagan for serving on her committee.

This year, I want to celebrate some of my older published works every few weeks. We do so much work as academics to get our work published, but then we move on to the next one so quickly. Let's focus on our achievements by sharing our past work! #AcademicSky

What makes a good research supervisor? Many students start by looking for disciplinary expertise, and rightly so. A research supervisor should be able to guide your project forward, help clarify conceptual misunderstandings, and support the intellectual development of your research. #AcademicSky

My YouTube channel has just reached its 11-year birthday! 🎉More than 1.6 million views to date. Who would have thought that my very niche academic channel about how to write university assignments and do quality research would be this popular? #AcademicSky #ScienceSky #UnexpectedSuccess

Just finished "We Solve Murders" by Richard Osman. Very entertaining 👍🏻 Can recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐ #BookSky #books

Peak gaslighting I experienced today: someone complaining to me that they're “not allowed to have an opinion”, then shutting me down because I disagreed with their opinion. Funny how “I’m not allowed to have an opinion” often means “No one’s allowed to challenge mine".

It's 45.4°C outside. In case you were wondering, that is too hot 🥵

Every research project begins with questions. This post reflects on some of the ideas I’ll be exploring in 2026. Some questions have been persistent ponderings over many years, while others are new, shaped by conversations with the students I teach. Check them out and tell me what you think ⤵️

​It is nice when your research inspires people to run a journal club about your paper! #AcademicSuccess #AcademicSky Check out the paper here: (doi.org/10.1080/1478...) or preprint if you don't have institutional access here: (doi.org/10.26180/283...)

Choosing a research supervisor is one of the most important decisions you’ll make in your academic journey. I break down the key qualities that make supervision truly transformative. What has made supervision work (or not work) for you? #AcademicSky #ScienceSky #PhDLife

Bluesky just asked me to verify my age due to the Australian under 16 social media ban. I feel young!

I realised I follow several journals and now I learn about new publications and interesting papers often here first - so I made a Starter Pack with journal accounts in case you wanted to as well. Let me know if I missed an important journal and I'll add it. go.bsky.app/L57tAru

Our message is simple: stay safe, follow the advice, and don’t take risks. We’re with you.

Back to work today after a nice and relaxing holiday. First step is to try and clear my more than 200 new emails 🥲

Happy 2026 everyone! 🎉
