Golden Tweeting Award

I was very pleased and honoured to be awarded a Golden Tweeter Award for my engagement with the Learning and Teaching in Higher Education Twitter Chat (#LTHEchat). To learn more about the award click on the image below.

There have been nine of these given out at the time of writing and two of these have gone to people at the University of Northampton. The other being Dr Hala Mansour in 2016.


What is #LTHEChat
The #LTHEChat is a weekly chat, 20:00-21:00 (UK time) Wednesdays,  conceived by Dr Chrissi Nerantzi and shared with Sue Beckingham as an opportunity for educators in higher education to discuss learning and teaching. It is an open weekly chat for anyone interested in higher education and providing an opportunity to share practices as well as ideas and connect with other practitioners on a regular basis. Each week the chat has a different focus, aimed at looking at a specific aspect of learning and teaching in HE. You don't have to say anything to be part of it, though after a while you probably will want to, following the discussion is ok. In fact you don't need a Twitter account to following passively just go to https://twitter.com/hashtag/lthechat 

Why I get involved is the people on it; every week you get an opportunity to discuss ideas, pick up new tools to help in my own teaching; but largely a great networking chance with some really interesting and supportive people.
