Dear #issotl23. Still reflecting on @DevonDilly’s keynote…. like an intergenerational conversation sharing wisdom about, & hope for, capacious scholarship. I’ll bring that thinking into several #studentsaspartners sessions on today. Small request - sunshine pls? Love, Kelly.

Dear #issotl23. What a place for a conference. On-site roller coaster (for real), suitcases w/tiny worlds inside, and train car sessions as space for so many SoTL stories. Keen to catch up w/student inquiry group today & listen to @DevonDilly. Love Kelly.

@chrislove1966 @ISSOTL Great having your insights in the workshop yesterday!

In Utrecht, Netherlands for the International Society for the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning Conference 2023 @ISSOTL #ISSOTL23

Dear #issotl23. Keen to meet new folks today & re-connect w/old friend @MickHealey3 to talk about writing SoTL for publication. Sharing writing frameworks and honest stories of writing w/friends makes our writing better & more joyful. Love, Kelly. centerforengagedlearning.org/books/writing-…

Dear #issotl23. Watching the bikes go past with an amazing cup of coffee (30 ML coffee roasters) in Utrecht and I might miss the conference sitting here… You know where to find me. Love, Kelly. @ISSOTL

@kellymatthewsUQ @CrinaDamsa We’re discussing student agency and partnership in authentic assessment design. We’ve recently discussed the ethics of shaping students as educational subjects through assessment with @liliyang_edu - might be interesting to look more closely at auth. as. tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

What a great way to spent a few hours today - inspiring facilitators creating space for important, nuanced perspectives on a topic desiring of our full attention. Lots of gratitude to @BaileyMadHatter @KatetheWalsh & Ana for the vision.

Is it just me? Anyone else feeling like ‘assessment’ conversations are constraining (at best) & de-humanising (at worst)? Join in. Contribute to a different conversation. @DrJoannaT @molliedollin eventbrite.com.au/e/open-panel-1…

Good read on the benefits of the ‘unconference’ to encourage greater inclusivity by platforming, validating, and sharing the lived expertise of minority voices in higher education. Helpful strategies to run your own unconference. Thanks @BrookeSzucs timeshighereducation.com/campus/making-…

What a smart book! Loving the many stories and practical advice for students on the importance of human relationships. Thanks to @pfeltenNC and co-authors. And it is free! Recommend for students and staff. muse.jhu.edu/book/111986

Wow, our @CRADLEdeakin symposium on authenticity in assessment officially starts next week! You can still register (in person or online) for open events on Fri 13, Mon 16 & Tues 17 Oct: blogs.deakin.edu.au/cradle/2023/09…

The 2023 Students as Partners Roundtable in-person program looks amazing! Two days at Uni of Melbourne talking partnership practices, inclusion, values, diversity, and more. Looking forward to tweets from @wsu_sap @molliedollin @belinda_brear arts.unimelb.edu.au/teaching-and-l…

Make students part(ners) of your teaching. Fun, fast read of practical approach for engaging students as partners from Uni of Sydney Business School. @AdamBridgeman @InterJournalSaP @sydney/make-students-partners-of-your-teaching/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">educational-innovation.sydney.edu.au/teaching@sydne…

Loving this book - challenging notion of student voice as passive, survey-completing exercise solved by giving students more choice. Real examples and expansive opportunities for inclusion and equity. Recommend. @InterJournalSaP hep.gse.harvard.edu/9781682537718/…

Hurrah, our paper on students as partners and feedback (led by @kellymatthewsUQ) from 2021 has been allocated an issue! tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

“Why does research matter?” For the WSU Student Partners, research is an integral part of how we go about Co-creating Change at the university. We’ve also been working on an interesting research paper coming soon. #westernsap #studentsaspartners #westernsydneyuniversity
