Yes we are very likely to have expectations that all the new students will understand practices and language that are second nature to us but alien to new ‘non traditional’ students #lthechat

A big thank you to Roger Saunders for having me on his podcast, it was an excellent experience. In the episode we discuss evidencing #impact for #promotions and #fellowships (such as NTF) Hope the few highlights I shared are useful. #LTHEchat #edusky #NTF open.spotify.com/episode/4DEa...

open.spotify.com/episode/4DEa... In the podcast Roger Saunders asks me questions about evidencing impact for promotions and fellowships (for instance NTF). I share some highlights that I hope will be useful for others. #LTHEchat #NTF #edusky

Hats off to anyone in UK academia right now who is turning up for work, marking essays, meeting students, giving lectures, holding seminars, being there for colleagues and also facing the threat of redundancy, voluntary or compulsory. It’s a grim and surreal time #UKhigherEd
