Valuable article, 'Bridging the gap between pre-university and university psychology education in the UK: The role of the BPS Teacher’s Toolkit' – www.bera.ac.uk/blog/bridgin...
This sounds reasonable but is 100% wrong. Whether you or agree or disagree with a study is completely immaterial. What matters is whether the study was conducted properly and generates valid results. And it's impolitic to say but it's true: you have to have some level of expertise to judge that.
Grammarly is now an enemy of education
"Universities risk putting students in impossible positions where they’re simultaneously told they can use a tool and that using certain functions of that tool constitutes cheating."
Seriously, ban it. It's no friend of education

I’m delighted to say that @edpsy.bsky.social has just published my article about @bpsofficial.bsky.social @bps-dartp.bsky.social @theatp.bsky.social on its blog! 🎉 @edpsydan.bsky.social for giving me the opportunity to do this! edpsy.org.uk/blog/2025/th...
Read it last week, really enjoyed it! 📚

Essentially *all* research and expert assessments show that this does not work. It will not counter Farage, but literally push votes towards Reform.
It genuinely is impossible to overstate how profoundly stupid and strategically illiterate this decision is.
You cannot out-Reform Reform.

Thanks so much, Brad! Amazing to chat with you about this.
Huge shout out to @jwfirth.bsky.social. I just interviewed him about some of the key ideas in his book. I can’t recommend subscribing to his newsletter enough!
Many thanks for sharing, Paul!! And very useful suggestion.

If I were him, I'd add one bullet about metacognitive skills.
