Thank you, editors and reviewers at @cerp.rsc.org, for a very constructive peer review process. We could always do with an artistic rendition of a pedagogical model :)

A6 It looks a lot like the ring at the climax of a wedding ceremony: circular, golden and everybody grins at it, even those who can't help but cry. #LTHEchat

A5 #LTHEChat in times of difficulty we humans do tend to excel. Smarter is definitely needed here.

A5 closer alignment of the conditions of regulation and TEF is a wondrous gift for combatting all those infuriating cliches about box-ticking and the tail wagging the dog. #LTHEchat

@suebecks.bsky.social do you use deck.blue? The 4-5 min lag in updating the #lthechat column means that Tweetdeck performed much better 10 years ago. These chats are much clunkier than they need to be. Or is there a better tool?

A3 Move the date of the NSS, give participants an opportunity to develop some perspective. Consider closer (constructive) alignment of the NSS questions and the TEF objectives. Acknowledging Jim D. #LTHEchat

Now back in the day, in #LTHEchat we would call this dereferentialisation. Or more specifically in HE, adjective inflation.

I think a lot will depend on technicalities of how outcomes are benchmarked, particularly wrt institutional mission group, entry tariff etc + how seriously the new system considers equity of outcomes for all groups. But I think it is a good thing a good NSS can't cover for poor outcomes .. #LTHEchat

A1 I think the "lowest rating" is another positive step in the evolution of the TEF, promoting a consistent balance across the dimensions of the student and graduate experience. #LTHEchat

Yes, and whisper it but something needs to give and graduate skills are (generally) more important than discipline. #LTHEchat

Interesting, I always fear that if we (ever) go to fast we get no meaningful learning. #LTHEchat

This where the old skool chats would get into dereferentialisation territory. #LTHEchat

A5 we timetable a bunch of students in a room and facilitate them talking to each other about something related to one of the intended learning outcomes. The AI might now even be able to suggest some good conversation prompts (questions) #LTHEchat
