This is a really interesting blog - I once had a colleague ask me if one of my papers about play in learning was peer reviewed so that "the best you can hope for is ambivalence" line really resonated with me. www.goonhammer.com/the-road-to-heid…

I've been doing lots of blogging lately, almost as though I'm planning on stepping away from work for an extended period to work on a new project . . . like baby number 2. jillymackay.com/post/return-of-the-…

We have a new preprint available, a pre-registered methods study looking at the relationship between practical exam performance and academic practice, self-efficacy and self-esteem in vet students. The results may shock you! #EdResearch #Academia #VetEd osf.io/preprints/edarxiv/r7vug

🆕 blog! “Yet another AI Racism example” Here's a good pub-quiz trivia question - which Oscar-winning Actors have appeared in Doctor Who? It's the sort of thing that you can either wrack your brains for, or construct a SPARQL Query for WikiData0. I was bored and asked ChatGPT. The new Omni […]

Have you ever been been told by an overly enthusiastic presenter that "55% of communication is through body language!"? They're lying to you. The study that's based on only tested women listening to single words. Modern management theory is largely based on bullshit […]

I am delighted to say that my school (R(D)SVS) has decided to leave Xitter. We are no longer going to be maintaining our school account there and this has been a decision made on principle as well. Such a great little positive piece of news IMO 💛

I always feel very complimented when someone uses my paper in an unrelated field to explain a definition of something - like "yeah, I did explain that well! Thanks for reading my random education paper".

This has been a very interesting project to be part of (for many reasons!) but I'm delighted to say we've preprinted our submission to #ALTC24 @A_L_T @emilynordmann.bsky.social‬ and I were interested in how educators understood the terms #BlendedLearning #HybridLearning and #HyflexLearning so […]

I decided to blog a bit about our new THE article - some of the slightly more political, and possibly less popular thoughts about UK HE, and how we need to think carefully about what draws students to learn. jillymackay.com/post/still-recording
