New blog post: My #FemEdTech Years and what’s next marendeepwell.com?p=5480

Mood of the day 🙂

'With love from a doctoral examiner: Get the basics right', a #OEWeek25 present from Chrissi Nerantzi, Shironica Karunanayaka and yours truly to those of you getting ready for a #viva: zenodo.org/records/1493...

The #femedtech twitter account (2016 - 2024) has now been deleted as maintaining a presence on X is no longer compatible with femedtech values. The femedtech Open Space femedtech.net & #femedtech hashtag remain active & we encourage all those who share femedtech’s values to continue using them.

For #oeweek25 I am involved in a week-long celebration of blogging on the open web with @www.reclaimhosting.com ; and I am also joining Amanda Coolidge, Executive Director of BCcampus and Marcela Morales, Executive Director OEGlobal, on OE Global Voices 🙌 oeweek.oeglobal.org/activity/in-...

Blogging about the last few days in Dublin - fun was had! marendeepwell.com?p=5441

Follow the hashtags... #oeweek25 for Open Education Week and #blogging4life (for our new blogging community of practice). We're preparing a week of blogging prompts, open resources and a bit of inspiration for finding (or reviving) your voice on the open web. blog.reclaimhosting.com/get-ready-fo...

Beach memory for Monday: this is April ‘21. Oxwich Bay is in the Gower, and it’s a beautifully dramatic landscape.

Time to 👋 wave goodbye to Dublin after a fabulous few days! Deeply grateful for the inspiration & energy. Plus, such lovely feedback for my talk about walking… both walking audio resources are available openly along with the slides.

What a great day! Fantastic symposium, great conversations and lovely catching up with folk in person! Education after the algorithm had it all. Big kudos to all involved, especially @eam0.bsky.social @kate-molloy.net @gasta.me 👏👏👏

Always a joy… @edtechie rocking his keynote complete with cat video… 🐱

Re-wilding my conference badge.

I loved tuning into Helen Beetham's keynote at DCU's Education after the Algorithm conference this morning. #learningrewilded #sketchnote #ai

For centuries, the strong union of the humble pencils ruled the page. Then one day came AI… read all about the epic struggle in the first issue of HB vs AI-intelli-pen. Thanks @visualthinkery.bsky.social 👌

Inspiring start to the symposium day - what a pleasure to hear Helen Beetham on education after the algorithm

The best kind of fun has already begun… I am looking for people with blue shoes today

My new calling card... Ready for “Education after the algorithm” in Dublin this week! Big shout out to @visualthinkery.bsky.social for bringing his magic to this wonderful event, and @eam0.bsky.social and colleagues 🙌 It already feels like a joy to take part and it's not even started yet...

I was supposed to be running a workshop on blogging this week. That's not going to happen for various reasons, so I wrote a blog post to share resources instead. For those about to blog lornamcampbell.org/higher-educa... HT @marendeepwell.bsky.social

Great to listen to our Chief Exec, Lucy Crompton-Reid, on our hybrid working model here at Wikimedia UK. Lucy shares examples of putting wellbeing at our policies and discusses how working with the open knowledge community has inspired how we operate. Thanks Maren 🫶 #hybridworking #staff #office

Great to be here at the RPL Showcase in Dublin, and highlighting the launch of the RPL Toolkit. www.priorlearning.ie/resources-to...

Fabulous research opportunities with a great Prof!

🎧 From Inauguration Day to Origami. What happens when you run a coaching course on digital wellbeing for leaders starting 20th Jan ‘25? In this episode I reflect on the social/political context, Digital Productivity Double Speak & AI “Solutions” to Hybrid Working. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/l...

First daffodil peeking through in the garden 🙌

Congratulations to my course cohort in their final week! I am really grateful for the inspiring conversations of the past month. It takes a lot of energy to step away from a busy workload and focus on a better work/life balance, a more balanced relationship with technology and digital productivity.

Putting the finishing touches to my talk for at next week’s conference today! Really looking forward to this one 🙌

The plant shelf in my office is looking very green this morning. Starting the day with a bit of watering before the day’s meetings get underway.

Join me for a conversation with Lucy Crompton-Reid FRSA for a deep dive into leading a successful distributed organisation. This was a lot of fun to record, and I loved talking to Lucy and learning more about her work as Chief Executive at Wikimedia UK podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/l...

Walking into the weekend… not working today 🙌. No beach as such, but a beautiful stretch of coastal path in West Wales, June ‘22.

This week’s veg box included a pineapple (surprise fruit of the week!) and thus we made a pineapple loaf cake. Delicious 🙌
