Industry-ready graduates: a moving target? At #EERN2026 today, Bertie Knight and I argue that the challenge isn't keeping curricula aligned with industry - it's developing graduates who can adapt as industry evolves. New blog: www.garycwood.uk/2026/07/industry-ready-graduates-moving-target.html

Wonder when someone's going to make an aggregator tool that allows you to use a single app to pull in content from Twitter and all its clones...?

My first post on @bsky.app, and I'm wondering if the #HE community here might be what it once was on Twitter... Any tips on how to easily find and connect with my followers from that platform?
