A very happy new year to everyone. I wish and pray that 2025 is the year when the world finally decides to take a chill pill, stop going into wars, stop killing innocent people and children, stop burning the planet, and people start being kind(er) to each other. #HappyNewYear #Peace #Kindness

@carlessdavid.bsky.social absolutely delighted to have Prof Feedback in the room! Since dropping X, been missing his feedback & HE updates (and occasional fine wining/dining & hols). Order is restored!!!!

Absolutely essential to exercise "letting go" in so many aspects of H education. At a fundamental level, from a #situatedlearning framing: it's about placing learners in a position of agency.

Sade on the radio on Sweetest Taboo, reminded me of the mother of all misheard lyrics, another song of hers, Mousse Vapourator, or was it Moose Vaporator? Yes, it was fun as a teenager in Uruguay trying to make sense of lyrics in English. I thought Duran Duran were rather political with "No Tories"

Loving my job @leedsteaching.bsky.social This month is busy with feedback on fellowships and preparing to launch the first stage of our 5-yr strategy. This means I spend my days with great colleagues focusing on meaningful/purposeful conversations around HE. Having the time of my life! Thank you!

We keep on ignoring the evidence, the experts, and misunderstanding what they mean at our students' peril. If anyone had any doubt, here's from Prof Feedback himself...
Prof David Carless, World expert in feedback in Higher education, shows a photo of himself at a conference talking about the importance of self-feedback and using other sources of feedback to calibrate it.

I dreamt that I heard that Jonnie Peacock had won gold at Paris. I dreamt I actually went online to check. I dreamt I found the news he indeed had won. And I was so happy in my dream. I hope it is a premonition!

PLEASE PLEASE STOP USING ACRONYMS! (says the Director of LITE... irony not gone unnoticed...) OK. let me rephrase: let's avoid acronyms as much as possible, particularly in blanket emails asking to do something, or at least define them first. Rant over. UK (ha) seems the land of the acronym...
