One of the most exciting things I've been involved in this year at work with @YourSAatUHI is contributing to UHI Generative AI policy, in particular the student guidance document. Chuffed with my "virtual study buddy" concept. uhi.ac.uk/en/t4-media/on…

The last day we are all in the office together before the end of the semester so we treated ourselves to lunch out. It has been a busy, sometimes challenging year but lots of laughs and great work and such a fab team. 🄰 Jane Steele Andy Blackall Wendy Jessiman LTA at UHI

Colleagues atĀ UHI have authored case studies exploring their practice through the lens of the PSF2023. These have been of huge value to colleagues on their own fellowship journey. 🄰 LTA at UHI UHI Advance HE Case-Studies_psf_uhi_06-24_AW.pdf doi.org/10.25416/NTR.2…

I’ve written this blog, I’m interested in professional identity, my own and others. The blog looks at tertiary identity through professional frameworks. Includes a downloadable mapping of PSF23 and Professional Standards for Lecturers in Scotland’s Colleges.
