A6 #LTHEchat good pedagogic development support, as for any curriculum development. Examples of how to adapt, redesign and innovate for the block.

A5 #LTHEchat if/when you get the opportunity to design for block, step back and ask 'what do we really want this programme to be/to do?' Go back to those first principles and re-design from there. Take into account all stakeholder feedback, external requirements & subject benchmarks etc.

A4 #LTHEchat like any change there are many perceived barriers to implementing block delivery, but ultimately most of it can be addressed and overcome as long as there are enough people willing to make the change work.
