AGCAS Heads of Service conference 2012

I spent the second half of last week at AGCAS‘s new heads of service training and then the AGCAS Heads of Service conference in Dublin.  This is an annual event for heads of higher education careers services. Just like last year it was an enjoyable conference. It was good to meet people, some of whom [...]

 
AGCAS Heads of Service conference

I’ve just got back from the AGCAS Heads of Service conference at Conference Aston. This was my first time at the conference and I was there in my acting up capacity. As is usually the case with conferences, the best part was meeting people – especially to share ideas and compare experiences. I felt particularly welcomed by [...]

 
ALTC 2010 quick mid-conference reflections

Part way through a busy ALTC conference I’m just trying to jot down a few of my thoughts on things so far (largely for my own benefit rather than anyone elses). Yesterday was a bit of a slow start. Donald Clark’s keynote was, I felt, provocative but lacking in any substance or evidence. Mostly I’ll [...]

 
A better conference wordle

Just taken out all the usernames from the conference wordle which results in something more informative and less self-referential (a part from the word ‘twitter!). Click on it to see the original and bigger image.

 
Quick conference wordle

Just got back from an excellent Association for Learning Development in Higher Education conference. I’ll write more of a report another time but just wanted to put up a wordle for the #ldhen10 conference hashtag (downloaded these using this Twitter tag downloader tool) Hmmm, probably should have taken out the usernames using edit/replace as well [...]

Thank you to all of you who commented on my draft – it was really helpful. The comments especially prompted me to think through the [...]

Conference reflections: SLTC09

I seem to be continuing my late Friday afternoon blogging habit. But at least I’m still going and I’m hoping that as I continue I’ll find it more and more useful. We’ll see. On 16th and 17 June I was in Edinburgh at the Science Learning and Teaching conference. Here are a few reflections before [...]

 

Here’s my poster for the 3rd Science Learning and Teaching Conference. Maybe by next year I’ll have something else to talk about other than plagiarism tutorials. Hope so! Subject-specific online plagiarism tutorials

 
Unconference

I’m just hurrying off for the bank holiday, but thought I’d do another quick high-traffic-Friday-afternoon-post (!) first about the unconference I organised and ran today. Whilst I was a bit worried before hand, it really wasn’t difficult to sort out (though it would probably would have benefited a bit more thought). What I’ve been struck [...]
