@DevonDilly Bear hugs and best wishes Dilly

I’m at my first residential work event (TEF Panel in Coventry) since my husband Peter died. I would always send him a message that I’ve arrived safely and feel settled by his reply. It’s these little things…

LUMS is an excellent institution. A system must be set up where there is holding of hands between Universities so that we do not have isolated gems but beautiful sets of bracelets adorning our landscape. Have asked LUMS to increase its reach & volume with more online components.

@LornaSomers @McMasterU @McMaster_MI @MacMatlsProf @PatrickDeane37 Hi Lorna I was thinking about Paul as well. Terrible typo - sorry my fingers were faster than this ageing brain. Please express my gratitude and thanks as well!

@arshadahmadmac @McMasterU @McMaster_MI @MacMatlsProf @PatrickDeane37 I’ll let Paul MacPherson know. Note spelling of his surname. It’s important to him.

Congrats McMaster for winning the overall Global Teaching Excellence Award announced in Edinburgh last night. McPherson staff get full credit for their incredible contributions! @McMasterU @McMaster_MI @MacMatlsProf

"It's wonderful not only to be able to lay claim to a high standing as a research institution, but to have this kind of evidence and affirmation that this is an institution that cares just as much about teaching and learning." bit.ly/2JG5YRo

@MacMatlsProf Your vision, guidance and unwavering support were the secret sauce to McMaster’s success. Thank you David!

Congratulations @arshadahmadmac. A tremendous recognition of the accomplishments of the MacPherson Institute and its leadership.

@MickHealey3 @IJSAP @mq_SaP Being hosted at his home by Mick, Chris, Ruth, Tess, Meg and Sam during this time is a privilege and icing on the cake!

Huge congratulations. Thoroughly deserved. Numerous innovative practices especially around students as partners. @IJSaP; #ISaPI2018; @mq_sap

Congrats McPherson staff!

Fab location at THE Teaching Excellence Summit at the U of Glasgow. And the panel on disrupting teaching -through pedagogical partnerships of course! @McMasterU @McMaster_MI @InterJournalSaP @THEworldsummits #TeachingEx

@sophia_abbot @MickHealey3 @McMaster_MI @McMasterU Spot on Sophia. This was a tad presumptuous and not a quote from Peter. He did say something Canadian - that perhaps “partnerships was too bold a word” and agency more appropriate. After listening to everything Peter said, I think we should be BOLD. Or brave as Alison would say..

Peter at his thoughtful, inspirational best in closing beautiful ICED with asking us to give agency to students #ICED2018 @MickHealey3 @McMaster_MI @McMasterU
