The workshop explored the outcomes of a global CPD activity around a common walk augmented by the structured use of social media (a ‘#twalk’) in which all participants acted as co-producers to study the topic of digital placemaking. During the workshop we ran a #minitwalk (search for the evidence using the hashtag elsewhere). The workshop concluded with some parallel discussion activities.

All or nothing: Building teaching team capacity to support the adoption of ac...Andrew Middleton
Andrew Middleton and Helen Kay
Learning Enhancement & Academic Development, Sheffield Hallam University
The workshop explored how we can better support the development of effective academic teams by recognising and acknowledging the various stages and characteristics associated with the implementation of innovative practices. Participants considered the implementation of educational development strategies aimed at developing consistently excellent learner-centred teaching across teams to improve student satisfaction. This is a challenge because innovative teachers are typically set apart from their peers as innovative champions by, for example, receiving special funding for teaching development projects or being recognised for inspirational practice individually. A shift to a learning paradigm (Barr & Tagg, 1995) is not a matter of individual excellence but is cultural. Adopting a common philosophy requires a significant commitment from all team members, although some would argue this is not attainable (Kember & Kwan, 2000).
To background this, the facilitators will report on the CPD models (Rogers, 1995; Pundak & Rozner, 2007; Herckis, 2017).they have used to move a course team towards confident and consistent use of the problem-based pedagogies associated with SCALE-UP active learning classrooms (Beichner, 2008). We will introduce the SCALE-UP method and the challenges its adoption created for the teaching team and their students. Initially driven by a sole innovator, its implementation exposed not only the imagination and strengths within the team, but the time, teaching experience and required capacity needed for the adoption of new active learning methods.
CAFE(Consistently active, flexible and experiential) workshopAndrew Middleton
With co-presenters: Jeff Waldock; Tim Jones; David Greenfield; David Smith; Ian Glover; Sinead O'Toole; Ciara O'Hagan; Colin Beard
Participants were invited to engage with the Spaces for Learning Toolkit prior to the workshop, specifically briefing screencasts and papers about four types of student-centred active learning approaches being developed by the University’s Future Learning Spaces Academic Interest Group: SCALE-UP classrooms, Stand Up Pedagogy, Technology Enabled Learning Labs, and the Immersive Think Tank Project Space.
The need for consistent taught experiences in response to student concerns about uneven learning experiences is indisputable. However, excellent teaching is flexible, being responsive to its dynamic context including the needs of students, the curriculum, signature pedagogies (Shulman, 2005), disciplinary culture, and opportunities to situate learning (Brown et al., 1989). Good innovative academic practices engage students through active, co-operative, and challenging methods (Gibbs, 2010). However, if consistency is misread as rigidity, and teaching excellence misread as teacher-centred delivery, learning may be inadvertently re-consigned to the Instruction Paradigm (Barr & Tagg, 1995) of 19th century Industrial Age classrooms and societal demands (Scott-Webber, 2004). We must critically assess what we mean by consistently good student experiences so that our future spaces are designed to challenge and stimulate inspirational learning.
The Future Learning Spaces Academic Interest Group has successfully developed a range of evidence-informed spaces for student-centred active learning and is working closely with the University’s directorates to evaluate them and establish quality standards for benchmarking existing classrooms and other formal and non-formal learning spaces.
Using a pop-up Stand Up Classroom pedagogy, you will discover ‘whiteboard learning’ through collaborative problem-solving, mapping, listing and sorting type activities. You will experience the Stand Up Classroom and discover why it keeps you and your peers motivated. You will work in triads to tackle problems from the SCALE-UP classroom; and you will experience the methods of the Technology Enabled Learning Lab and the Immersive Think Thank Project Space. The future learning space, in its many forms, is a commitment to keep learning vibrant, meaningful, applied and connected. You will take away a good understanding of built pedagogy (Monahan, 2000) and how space, learning and teaching interconnect.
Participants are invited to become Future Learning Spaces group members.
Connecting the Curriculum with Civic OpportunitiesAndrew Middleton
Andrew Middleton, Charmaine Myers and Graham Holden
This presentation introduces the Venture Matrix scheme at Sheffield Hallam University, which has proven the value of developing applied learning methods in co-operation with schools and local businesses for over 10 years. Its central role is to develop real-world experience in the curriculum by introducing course leaders to civic ‘clients’ from schools and businesses in the region who can provide student groups with project briefs. Students address problems that matter by applying and developing their disciplinary knowledge and capabilities. It facilitates boundary crossing in which learning happens through a facilitation of mutually beneficial relationships. The Venture Matrix establishes a Third Space (Gutiérrez et al., 1999) by developing strong ties between civic partners and university students. Business ‘clients’ set learning problems for university students; students develop solutions; school pupils use the outcomes of student work. Each brings contextual factors that contribute to a rich immersive experience. We describe how this enhances learning and the development of student identities, and how it has inspired a large-scale integrated co-operative education model supporting student transition and success. Our question for participants is "Who owns learning the civic Third Space as the pupil becomes student and as the student becomes employer?"

A Twalk is a walk with a tweetchat. This twalk was devised to support the UK Learning Spaces Special Interest Group's first meeting which took place in Sheffield on 28th July 2017. It to the theme of Crossing Boundaries and walk structured around a series of discussion topics relating to that theme.
An outline of some of the areas of work we are undertaking at Sheffield Hallam around Future Learning Spaces. The work tends to fall into two areas:
1. student engagement and belonging
2. Student-centred active learning

These cards were produced for a workshop given at the APT 2017 learning and teaching conference, University of Greenwich. They are intended to stimulate thinking about active learning and co-production in any discipline.
STUDIO FOR ALL
"studio-based learning can serve as a way for all students to learn to participate in the cultural practices of their discipline".- Schön (1985; 1987)
This is a set of cards designed to stimulate discussion about a studio-based learning paradigm. (The approach is inspired by the Vorticists and the painting is by the Voticist artist Jessica Dismore. (Apologies - the font has not travelled well). Ideas are inspired by Ray Oldenburg's idea of Third Place, and Siemen's ideas about connectivism, Schon's work on studio space, and many others
The brief presentation looks at the SCALE-UP classroom to understand structured flexible space and how this helps to understand 'portfolio space'. The context is academic CPD as a connectivist and generative learning space.

From conundrum to collaboration, conversation to connection: using networks t...Andrew Middleton
Workshop for SEDA 2016
We know that networks play an important role in academic life (Moron-Garcia, 2013) especially when dealing with the “unhomeliness” (Manathunga, 2007) of life as an academic developer, working across disciplinary and professional borders. This workshop will showcase an ongoing learning space collaboration that started over a casual conversation at a network meeting sharing conundrums and developed into a wider conversation across two institutions at different stages of learning space development. Between us, we will reflect on the power of conversation (Barrett et al., 2004), practices learnt and shared and highlight the importance of building inter-professional networks within and across institutions in order to inform and guide change (Pennington, 2003). As leaders in the academy academic developers are often given the tricky institutional conundrums to solve, however the delights of our role are the opportunities to build those networks, drawing on the generosity of our various communities enabling us to ask the awkward questions (Cousin, 2013) and answer them together working as a “critical friend in the academy” (Handal, 2008).
The activity will allow us to draw on our experiences of engaging in conversations for innovation. We will reflect how our motivations and purposes are different and will change throughout a collaboration, and how we sustain or conclude our work. A number of questions will be addressed with the aim of developing further collaborations among participants, sharing knowledge and establishing that you don’t need to know what you need to know before starting the conversation:
How do you ask for help?
Who do you ask for help?
How do you build networks within and between institutions?
In this keynote for Anglia Ruskin University's Digifest 2016 I introduced the idea that a convergence of emerging digital contexts is creating a tipping point in understanding the hybrid learning space. This changes the relationships we have with our students and signals at last that digital lifewide learning shifts the balance from a teaching or content-centred paradigm to learning paradigm.
The implications are staff and students need to learning the literacies of this connectivist learning environment.
In-between dominant learning spaces: a gap in our thinking about interstitial...Andrew Middleton
#UOGAPT workshop, July 2016
#APT16 workshop - containing the outputs of the workshop on the last two slides
A profound understanding of the higher education learning space is emerging through recent works that pay more attention to the learner's experience than to creating landmark architecture. (Harrison & Hutton, 2013). The aim of the workshop is to prove that technology and media can disrupt instrumental thinking about the learning space. The workshop,
introduced the problem of learning binaries
introduced the concepts of in-between space in relation to hybrid learning, and liminality
generated and shared stories in small groups in which personal and portable digital technologies and media play a pivotal role at the intersection of formal and non-formal physical, digital hybrid learning space
concluded by devising a manifesto for liminal learning!
The session will build upon ideas of Third Space and hybridity (Gutiérrez et al., 1999), in-between space (Shortt, 2014) and liminality (Turner, 1969).

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Educational Podcasting: digital voices as media interventions
1. Educational Podcasting: digital voices as media interventionsWhat do we mean by educational podcasting? Andrew Middleton MEL SIG: Queen's University Belfast18th January, 2010 Twitter #MELBEL These slides will be shared on: MEL wiki and slideshare.net
2. Outline Educational podcasting Awareness of what is happening in UK FE & HE through themed examples Forming understandings of the opportunity afforded by digital media such as audio and video to education via some design principles and a whirlwind tour
4. Learners, teachers, experts, and publics... Caveats: Beyond iTunes U..?, Beyond the recorded lecture – what can educational podcasting be? and a Social Constructivist view: We are all learners, We are all teachers We all find our own meaning Media intervention – using digital media fororientation, motivation, challenge setting and formation
5. A starting point:Principles informing audio transformed pedagogy General statements of what we hold to be true and useful (revised following Bath SIG workshop) Students and teachers value the personal connectivity that the recorded voice affords Students can learn by articulating their understanding to themselves and others Students value learning activity that is meaningful to them Students can learn from independent and social enquiry and problem-solving Neither knowledge nor learning is static, resulting from negotiated and interpreted changing information Teachers value being able to make personal interventions in order to encourage, direct, and challenge their students in facilitating learner-centred pedagogy Recorded digital audio increases access to the voices of teachers, peers, experts and publics Recorded digital audio allows for engagement that is not constrained by time, place, device and traditional teaching methods The act of reviewing information, arguments and conversation can lead to deeper levels of understanding
6. Design Principles We need to be able to evaluate the ideas we hear in the next few minutes, so: 1 minute neighbourhood activity,say hello then ask: “What do you think are the qualities of a good podcast?”
7. Effective educational podcasts… (1/2) ...will usually be characterised by, Signalling intention and clarity of purpose Speakers whose role and level of expertise is properly introduced Ideas and discussion that are relevant and well articulated An awareness of the specific learning situation or context Invitations and challenges - they are implicitly or explicitly purposeful References to, or acknowledgement of, related sources of knowledge …
8. Effective educational podcasts…(2/2) ...will usually be characterised by, A hook that engages the listener Conversational voices rather than formal monologues Structured and well-signposted information An awareness of the particular strengths and weaknesses of the audio medium Concise, well-paced and straightforward presentation Suitable clear production quality that is reasonable and appropriate for the intended audience. Anything else..?
13. Other definitions for the pedantic! Strict, technical definition: “the serial distribution via RSS feeds of locally created, downloadable, digital media episodes, usually audio, to a niche audience of subscribers” An open definition for education“asynchronous digital voices” It doesn’t matter too much: What can you do with digital audio
14. Finally Where do significant conversations happen? Where does learning happen? What might be the benefit of capturing those voices and moments?
