Brilliant presentation about AI policies in Higher Education from the perspective of a neurodiverse student by Deano Lund at Leeds Trinity - all #HEIs should watch this and reflect on their "rules and regs" around #AI - youtu.be/o0VBu8AcO3E?...

Really useful and pragmatic thoughts on a practical way to leave X - let's hope many HE accounts follow the lead from York with this #LeavingTwitter #GoodbyeX

Really interesting overview of the UK VLE market with analysis of the big four systems from 2024 - as always, well worth a read #VLE #LMS #EdTech

Still my favourite of all error pages - the Flickr "bad panda" page - worth getting an error to see this! (Flickr is usually super reliable and highly recommended 😀) #Flickr #BadPanda #error #ErrorPage

With thanks to Rob Howe from Uni of Northampton, I'm loving the @wonkhe.bsky.social 404 error page - keep reading beyond the initial 404 bit - brilliant! wonkhe.com/404

Everyone should follow this account! Wonderful nuggets of joy and little insights into everyday moments from the past. And some fabulous retro pictures - brilliant!

Sky Follower Bridge - Brilliant Chrome extension to check if the accounts you followed on X have moved to BSky - just found lots I'd previously missed - www.sky-follower-bridge.dev

Worrying news from the University of Hull - having a very well rated course or department doesn't result in immunity from financial challenges: University to close chemistry department www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... #Hull #HEFinance

Great to see even more familiar faces, friends and colleagues joining BSky. How long until any official university accounts move here from "the other social network"? Also here's a nice picture of the UEA campus as nobody reads things without a picture 😀

Really interesting free exhibition of linocuts by Norman Kaplan at UEA Enterprise Centre marking 30 years since first democratic elections in South Africa #Norwich #art #exhibition #SouthAfrica

Great to see UEA campus celebrity Sylvester again, getting lots of attention from students on the first day of teaching #UEA #Norwich #cat #Sylvester

Good analysis of the environmental impact of data centres from the big five tech companies, and the power consumption and therefore greenhouse gas implications of #AI #DataCentre #GHG #environmental www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Great to wander round the Welcome Week activities at the UEA at lunch time - really good programme through the week www.uea.ac.uk/welcome/get-...

Arrived at the School of Medicine at the University of Warwick for Echo360 workshop

Arrived at University of Warwick a bit early, heading to Echo360 workshop. First visit to Warwick since coming to a uni open day quite a few years ago!

Impressive temporary digital signage installed in The Square at UEA for open day and welcome week, great way to share tips and info to new students - eye catching on a dull day! #DigitalSignage #Freshers

Good analysis of HE funding challenges - "...how you scale...student experience, with authentic pedagogies, meaningful...extra-curricular opportunities..., high quality careers and welfare services, on a declining unit of resource and...paltry student maintenance loan, in an economic downturn..."

Another wonderful and witty interpretation of something we all do - attend a conference - in the style of our much cherished Ladybird books - well worth looking through the whole thread

Really good suggestion from ‪@hopkinsdavid.bsky.social‬ - looking to connect with more #EdTech and #altc folks but having a profile that explains your role and institution (and some nice personal bits too 😀) really helps when building networks

Just landed, having used another well-known social media site for many years - exploring the #EdTech community here...
