Today I found out I have been made Principal Fellow. I can't quite believe it to be honest. Overjoyed doesn't even come close! This took a lot of time, effort, and support from others. I was almost certain this would take years Matt East, Principal Fellow, Advance HE

You own a water company…. You enjoy a monopoly market You sell something people require for survival You don’t spend profits building or repairing your infrastructure You give billions to shareholders You pollute our waters …you then expect the bill-payer to bail you out.

The state of the United Kingdom right now. Meatballs in a security case. I blame the Tories entirely

@MartinSLewis Absolute mess. I'm on a train to London now. £60 for the pleasure of repeatedly sitting on floor or parcel shelf. Absolute joke of a system that desperately needs reform

Staggering response to my degrading train conditions tweets yesterday. So many feel effectively disenfranchised from rail travel. I'm glad it raised some awareness & media pick-up. Its not really my campaigning area but if you care, with an election coming, if a prospective MP knocks on your door, ask 'em what they'll do about it.

F'ing LOVE this. ♥️@Casey I watch everything in 2x—NOT THIS. Unrelenting driven patient determined pursuit 🏃‍♂️ 😤 🎯 youtu.be/9IiTdSnmS7E?si…

@Fightstarmusic Vinyl!!!

Putting this to twitter as well... What do you guys want to see on the merch stand at Wembley? ⬇️

@it_se @emilythemac @SmithWatchman @Wonkhe Merry birthday @it_se. We share a birthday!

What a fantastic way to celebrate my birthday. Feeling very inspired by colleagues 🙏 @emilythemac @SmithWatchman @Wonkhe

@RussBrookes1981 I think the opposite word is 'england' right now 😭

I just don't have the words right now. What's the opposite of rugby intelligence?

Out of office is on and well and truly checked out of anything work related. See you all in a week

A rather warm day for a half marathon but what a stunning race. Definitely one of my favourites. Royal parks half marathon done!

If this is the best argument the "force students to go to lectures" crowd can muster, they've lost the argument timeshighereducation.com/opinion/their-…

@Puiyin @VirnaRossi Yeah that why I was wondering this

After a 4 week leave (for THE trip of a lifetime in Australia) I now have only... 348 emails in my inbox. That's literally insane... any tips please?!? #LTHEchat #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter #AussieEd #highered #facdev #academia #edchat #edchatie #education #EdTwitter

@VirnaRossi @Puiyin 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@mdleast @Puiyin What?!? Did you email me? 😉 It's in camp 1, did you not get it? Just kidding, it's camp 2 I mean 3, of course

@VirnaRossi @Puiyin Well now I'm just left wondering if my email falls into camp 3 or 2

@Puiyin @mdleast well I was very tempted to do that... but incredibly I managed to go through ALL of them 1. did all the quick replies ones 2. deleted LOADS that did not need a reply anyway 3. I only have about 5 left that need longer replies/actions V impressed by my jet-lagged brain ;-)

@JoeMarler forehead will be my favourite assist for a long time. #ENGvJPN

18 years ago this weekend I moved into halls in Cambridge. Can't quite believe I'm that old. Very grateful to still be so close with this bunch of lads who I met on day 1

BULA!!! 🇫🇯🇫🇯🇫🇯🇫🇯🇫🇯🇫🇯

Some thoughts on the blog about Blackboard's AI Assistant and what it means for teaching, learning, and labor (link in my pinned post on profile)

A note to some edtech companies...surely it's better to have AI-powered features that genuinely elevate your product not sub-optimal hastily added ones that are an attempt for you to "keep up" #edtech
