In this episode, Rob and I are talking about using first-person writing within our teaching and assessment. 

This time we are thinking about the issues of leadership in Higher Education. Sometimes it looks like a lonely place to be and we wonder what motivates people to take on those roles. In addition could there be more leadership taking place in HE beyond the normal titles and roles?

In another very informal podcast we discuss our experience of teaching online and using virtual tools.  

This time we discuss our experiences of teaching international students. 

Here we tackle the use of standards in Higher Education learning and teaching. We are both involved in apprenticeship programmes where standards are used to evaluate overall apprentice achievement.  

Maybe our sessions and modules should allow students to spend time foraging for knowledge rather than simply following a trail of breadcrumbs...

More on creative practice but with a focus on our own behaviours and practice in the classroom, seminar room and workshops. 

Welcome to the introduction to our podcast series. How do any of us learn at university? On the one hand, it seems so straightforward, particularly when you read many of the policy and guidance documents in higher education (HE). However, we are not so sure. In working with students something magical can happen that we cannot quite put our finger on. In this series of podcasts, we take common subjects in HE learning and teaching and explore what is going on.
