Educational development as both scholarship and impact on practice: useful contribution by Claire Gordon & Sam Smidt

Well-argued analysis of both the power of AI, and what humans can offer in terms of augmented cognition

'I’m beginning to develop a firm conviction that teachers in higher education need to model and demonstrate to students how they themselves as academic professionals generate and use feedback information of different kinds.' Couldn't agree more!

Feedback seeking is a high leverage strategy & worth modelling for learners: short blog post scape.edu.hku.hk/feedback-see...

I think 'mini-vivas' can be used to tackle student over-reliance on GenAI, and I also used them to monitor or minimize free-riding web.edu.hku.hk/f/staff/412/...

Feedback literacy meets dialogue: Interesting and high quality article doi.org/10.1080/0260...

We have ruined essay writing by forgetting about it as a process and treating it as a product. It's time to rethink writing (and how we teach it) and, ironically, the challenge of AI can help, writes Alicja Syska blogs.lse.ac.uk/highereducat...

First keynote of #Digifest25 is from Paul Iske, CFO (chief failure officer) at the Institute of Brilliant Failures. He suggests reframing fail to mean 'first attempt in learning'. An inspiring and amusing start to the day!

You have a better chance of getting useful feedback if you ask specific questions. What kind of feedback do you want? A quick read for structure? Or do you want detailed comments? Is the argument OK? Highlight a paragraph or a page you want to discuss. #acwri

My new book is here! In this book I draw upon my research with students and educators to examine how we might find meaningful ways to be critical in contemporary times. The book considers some ways we might enact a relational critical practice

Productivity is overrated. What counts most is the quality of output, not the quantity. People may be impressed by the volume you produce, but impact depends on the value you create. Success is not about getting more things done. It's about doing more worthwhile things well.

It's wonderful to see Gerlese Åkerlind's brilliant OPEN ACCESS book on #phenomenography is out. I was deeply honoured to write the foreword for this important and beautifully written book: www.openbookpublishers.com/books/10.116...

In my new blog, I argue that the multiple, and conflated, functions of feedback need to be addressed. Comments welcomed. scape.edu.hku.hk/are-you-read...

How do we continue to make feedback effective as students increasingly move away from studying on campus, with fewer opportunities for dialogue with lecturers (& other students)? @drrobnash.bsky.social & I ponder this question @timeshighered.bsky.social: www.timeshighereducation.com/campus/stude...
