Amend the discourse away from policing, detection and regulation around the use of AI to one of exploration, criticality and examination of the technology's impact on the given discipline. GenAI affects every discipline in some way, and we need to ensure our students understand how. A3 #LTHEChat.
Definitely a shame to see it go this way. I followed ZP over to Second Wind and it seems to be doing quite well, though.
Absolutely true, there's a point of cognitive dissonance there, isn't there. 'We have robust design and approval processes!' and 'there are too many vanity programmes!' don't quite mesh together, somehow...
Oh that's another one that grates; I'd love to ask them what they actually mean by that.
I was mildly incensed at the latest use of 'Mickey Mouse degree' as a derogatory term for any course that's not directly industry-tied and/or actually helps develop critical thinking skills, to the point where I wanted to write something about it.

Five classes I took at university:
Apocalypse Then: The Disastrous History of the Fourteenth Century (still the best module title I've ever seen).
Atlantic Archaeology (Vikings!)
Detective Fiction (Naturally)
Medieval Lit 1&2 (Heroes! Chivalry!)
Early 20th C Literature (Woolf and Other Modernists)
No problem, happy to help!
Depends on the question type you're using and the way you display the responses, I think. under 'open-ended questions', you can pick the visualisation type - word-cloud, word-wall, or spotlight. I think word-wall has the largest limit at 500 characters.

I've had some good results with Poll Everywhere if you're looking for Q&A.
I moved to Warrington 13 years ago and it's been wonderful to see its improvement. It also understands that not every local redevelopment needs to target retail - the mixture of businesses now in the town centre has helped it to diversify really well.
I've started blogging again (c'mon, Sam, what is this, 2011?) and I am very rusty at it, but I still want to share it.

It's advertising 101 that he's applying to politics - create a problem that's alleviated by purchase. The sooner we stop believing the problem, the sooner the product becomes irrelevant.
A picture of the back of a dining chair with two cat paws poking out from the top and left side simultaneously. I think it's hilarious.
I think this might be one of my favourite pictures I've ever taken.
I mean, a lot of these guys already did make a mess in government. The more of these defections that happen, the more people will (should?) remember how bad it was the first time around.
Happy New Year, Bluesky!
There's a joke about the pen being mightier than the sword, and so the book must be tougher than armour, in there somewhere.
Wasn't it supposed to be a *bad thing* that various politicians/parties were going to take us back to the 1970s...?
My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings. Look on my works and let me know if you have any questions or queries.
'Respondants', too. Two for the price of one.
A decoration of a felt mouse. She is wearing a red dress, a red fur boa, and a gold necklace. She is fabulous.
This mouse has buried five husbands under mysterious circumstances.
Very excited for BAVS to come to Liverpool next year, and very pleased to see our CfP out! No specific theme, we are open to any exploration of the multifaceted nature of 'the Victorian' - have a look at the call here: victorianist.wordpress.com/2025/10/20/c...
This word triggers me

A small red enamel pin badge of a Cacodemon from the Doom series. Best described as a 'bitey meatball', he is round, red, horned, and with a single green eye in the middle above a very wide, toothy mouth used to eating people, that he looks very proud of.
An anonymous friend left me a Cacodemon pin badge on my desk and I love him.

And they don't get that, despite saying it, it doesn't win Farage supporters back, and it never will.

Have I reached some kind of academic milestone by genuinely spending a few hours panicking over a deadline for a thing I'd already submitted and had forgotten I'd finished?
