Katherine Weikert @kateweikert.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Always something. If it were me in a room, I'm always happy saying, hey folx, what's up? Looking here as well for in-room techniques to foster contribution (that I can share more widely in a programme/school) 110

Katherine Weikert @kateweikert.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Seeking some advice. How do you engage students in teaching sessions when they're not engaged? Looking for any kind of techniques that are shareable with colleagues. Kicking them out/dismissing early aren't the kind of options I'm looking for, please. UKHEI context and tertiary education, please. 1130

Katherine Weikert @kateweikert.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Sometimes I do some things like figuring out a degree classification or some mean or average proportion of marks, basic algebra stuff, and students from English secondary and tertiary education systems look at me like I'm doing alchemy.
