Iwi Ugiagbe-Green @profiwi.bsky.social · 24/06/2026A4- Always really valued DES - though I’m not sure I’ve always understood the full range of the role. I’m working with a DES colleague on a digital exclusion project at the moment - he has amazing expertise and insights from working with colleagues across the university -my view is narrow #LTHEchat 030
Iwi Ugiagbe-Green @profiwi.bsky.social · 24/06/2026A2 - it’s really important to me that people see me as someone with integrity -I know myself deeply - I don’t need other people to validate that but if people question my authenticity or integrity I’m shook - it’s really important to me given my social justice work and need to collaborate -#LTHEchat 010
Iwi Ugiagbe-Green @profiwi.bsky.social · 24/06/2026A1. My identity has shifted - I describe myself as a “lapsed accountant” and very much an academic or scholarly activist now - I write about the things I think are important but actually do things too, collaboration and community are hugely important to me, I try and make “good trouble” #LTHEchat 130
Iwi Ugiagbe-Green @profiwi.bsky.social · 24/06/2026So I learned the language of education development - particularly in third space dialogues and the heady days of “Pearson online delivery” - I was quite new to teaching and had only worked in accounting - I discovered all this theory and EdTech speak which I really valued at the time 130
Iwi Ugiagbe-Green @profiwi.bsky.social · 24/06/2026A3. I did CMALT back in 2012 at the same time as my PGcert. It was brilliant for my understanding at the time of alignment/scaffolding of learning activities with learning outcomes - developed my love of e-portfolios and valued reusable and re purposeful learning objects - learned loads! #LTHE 150

Iwi Ugiagbe-Green @profiwi.bsky.social · 17/06/2026@santanuvasant.bsky.social I think everyone in an academic senior leadership role should do at least a few guest lectures or be involved in a module at some operational level every year! #LTHEchat 121
Iwi Ugiagbe-Green @profiwi.bsky.social · 17/06/2026A3. Yes @abbis.bsky.social - You’re so right- valuing student voice outside of student feedback is so important - in their learning, assessment etc - holding space for to centre their voices is so important 🙏🏾 #LTHEchat 010
Iwi Ugiagbe-Green @profiwi.bsky.social · 17/06/2026A5. What do you think is the answer @abbis.bsky.social? Training? Putting it in promotion criteria? I really don’t know…What do you think? #LTHEchat 110
Iwi Ugiagbe-Green @profiwi.bsky.social · 17/06/2026A5. @santanuvasant.bsky.social 100% this. How do we achieve this. Do you think it needs to be performance managed? How do we get the cultural shift needed? #LTHEchat 210
Reposted by Iwi Ugiagbe-Green@suebecks @suebecks.bsky.social · 17/06/2026A5 A genuine system of care in a university goes beyond isolated wellbeing initiatives or reactive student services. It is a whole-institution approach where care is embedded in culture, policy, pedagogy, leadership, and everyday practicefor both students and staff. #LTHEchat 052
Iwi Ugiagbe-Green @profiwi.bsky.social · 17/06/2026A5. I often feel like services need to better connected and not siloed - student engagement, well being, the chaplaincy, personal tutoring etc - any good practice models out there? #LTHEchat 120
Iwi Ugiagbe-Green @profiwi.bsky.social · 17/06/2026@owenmarie.bsky.social - I feel your pain. I have family members with very different views to mine - a completely different dynamic to colleagues - I find it HARD ❤️ #LTHEchat 010
Iwi Ugiagbe-Green @profiwi.bsky.social · 17/06/2026What lovely photos! I feel the smiles radiate off the photos ❤️ 020
Iwi Ugiagbe-Green @profiwi.bsky.social · 17/06/2026A3. @suebecks.bsky.social Friendship is in theory an easier foundation on which to form and norm a team for sure - doesn’t always lead to great performance - but especially for early on in the student journey offers some safety ❤️ #LTHechat 111
Iwi Ugiagbe-Green @profiwi.bsky.social · 17/06/2026I LOVE this @suebecks.bsky.social ! ❤️ You’ll have to share how you get round the risk assessments! 😂 #LTHEchat 100
Iwi Ugiagbe-Green @profiwi.bsky.social · 17/06/2026A4. Mattering is really important - particularly for students who aren’t “sticky” for all sorts of reasons - bell hooks tells us “homeplace” as a space of care isn’t always what students associate with university #LTHEchat 041
Iwi Ugiagbe-Green @profiwi.bsky.social · 17/06/2026A3. You’re so right @suebecks.bsky.social - just verbalising it and acknowledging it brings so much assurance #LTHEchat 010
Iwi Ugiagbe-Green @profiwi.bsky.social · 17/06/2026A3 Precisely @santanuvasant.bsky.social I also use community agreements that we agree to - always really clear that we try to come to a place of understanding rather than agreement ❤️ #LTHEchat 021
Iwi Ugiagbe-Green @profiwi.bsky.social · 17/06/2026A3. Following on from our Persian food chat - food is community - encouraging students to share favourite foods - bake offs, cooking watch parties can be great was to build community & trust #LTHEchat 221
Iwi Ugiagbe-Green @profiwi.bsky.social · 17/06/2026A3. It’s amazing what simple human connection can do! A simple opener I have is “Tell me the story of your name” or learn a word or phrase in their home language #LTHEchat 100
Iwi Ugiagbe-Green @profiwi.bsky.social · 17/06/2026@suebecks.bsky.social - Delicious - the wonderful Haleh is going to cook a feast for me at some point! I cannot wait! This has just reminded mestatic.klipy.comKung Fu Panda: Po Says Yum YumALT: Kung Fu Panda: Po Says Yum Yum 210
Iwi Ugiagbe-Green @profiwi.bsky.social · 17/06/2026Q1 also asked about disagreement - wondering how people “agree to disagree” 🙂 #LTHEchat 100
Iwi Ugiagbe-Green @profiwi.bsky.social · 17/06/2026Amazing @suebecks.bsky.social - I know very little about that! Thx for sharing ❤️ 100
Iwi Ugiagbe-Green @profiwi.bsky.social · 17/06/2026Thx @jennyntu.bsky.social 🙏🏾. As you say, diversity show up in lots of wonderful ways - would you say this is true for your social/family circles too? #LTHEchat 000
Iwi Ugiagbe-Green @profiwi.bsky.social · 17/06/2026A1 Thx @suebecks.bsky.social 🙏🏾 Yes - our universities are certainly a wonderful tapestry of diversity - how about outside of work? #LTHEchat 100
