*every academic submitting a piece for an edited collection/special issue etc* “ok the thing is, im not gonna make the deadline, but the travails i have suffered! i am but a smol bean” *every academic editing a collection etc, putting on cop costume* “OH OH! jail for a thousand years!”

Loved the panel discussion from @puiyin.bsky.social @johnbrindletel.bsky.social @tamsyns.bsky.social @gamerlearner.bsky.social and @julievoce.bsky.social - thought-provoking questions on leadership and emerging leadership. I've got some new post-it notes for around my screen #ALTWinterSummit

Joining @altuk.bsky.social Winter Summit today on Future Leadership in Learning Technology - looking forward to the conversations

Today I'm at @jisc.bsky.social 's Student Experience Experts meeting, sharing about our Digital Transformation Pilot work at University of Chester

Last session of #ALTc24, talking to David White about ALT individual award - I have been so inspired and motivated by this community, and honoured by the award itself.

Learning more about becoming a CMALT Assessor at #ALTc24

Suggested "quick win" from a panel member: add accessibility of documents to your marking criteria for assessments (just like we mark adherence to referencing formats) - that way we will have a generation of students that learn this key competency in our digital world

The panel at this morning's keynote at #ALTC24 has been great; really direct about the critical importance of accessibility and inclusivity - listening to lived experience. Food for thought/action: digital accessibility statements for physical estate, not just digital estate/websites.

Starting day 3 at #ALTc24 - woohoo!

Thanks Lawrie! It's been a fab day at #ALTC24
