A6: inclusive learning design would be an expected element in any PD, especially when new tech is introduced. We would all be ready with the question, “so does this work for x learners?” #LTHEchat

A5: Involving students in design is also massive - some great initiatives from UTS like this one: lx.uts.edu.au/blog/2024/12... #LTHEchat

A5: I think telling students how the learning design/ materials they’re using are inclusive is a great start. Pointing out what is or isn’t working well to raise awareness at first #LTHEchat

A4: make it part of the conversation in every PD - some concepts take a while to sink in and settle, so little and often is helpful #LTHEchat

Long may the time zones favour us here in the southern hemisphere… (at least until the clocks change). I’m not sure I can do 5am but 7am is achievable!

Thank you @suebecks.bsky.social @profsallybrown.bsky.social and @kaysambell.bsky.social for making my first #FlutterChat such a positive experience. A bit retro, but in a really good way 🙃 I'll be back! #LTHEChat #HigherEd #AcademicSky lx.uts.edu.au/blog/2025/01...

💯 - tone, language, timing etc. all makes a huge difference in feedback. Emotional indeed. #LTHEchat
