Week 3 – Time Travel through Scotland in Search of the Missing Locations
This week has been very productive and I now feel as if I am beginning to progress in narrowing down my list of unfound places. Over the course of the week I have been working through my spreadsheet of place names and acting as a detective to locate them in Scotland. Overall, it has been […]
ScotlandPHP
https://blogs.ed.ac.uk/dlam/2019/11/18/scotlandphp/
From the photo, it may look like I have just returned from PHP Brazil. But alas, I was actually attending ScotlandPHP in Edinburgh. They didn’t have any ScotlandPHP elephants, but did have a few PHP Brazil elephants – bit random – so I picked up one of those instead. Maybe next year. Despite missing out […]

Hello again everyone! For those who don’t know me, my name is Alex and I’m now in my 4th year at the Dick Vet. Much has changed since I wrote my last blog back in March 2020; sometimes, it almost feels like we’re living in a world turned upside down. All of us have been […]

https://blogs.ed.ac.uk/ede/2016/09/12/not-going-to-altc-2016/
I was very excited about attending ALT C this year, I’d registered, booked accommodation and travel, but a last minute family emergency meant I was unable to go. I was disappointed but knew that some of the sessions would be live streamed – so as I’d already blocked out my diary I went online to […]

https://blogs.ed.ac.uk/ede/2013/07/16/learning-analytics-summer-institute-7th-july-2013/
Learning Analytics has rapidly become a “hot topic” in Higher Education. Our teaching and learning activities online now generate “big data” and there is a need to manage and understand that data, to make best use of it at national, local, institutional and school level.

Group Spaces
https://blogs.ed.ac.uk/ilts/2020/08/28/group-spaces/
On campus there are so many spaces for groups to form and work together collaboratively: Library pods, coffee shops, labs, accommodation, maybe even just sitting in the meadows. Group collaboration that is both structured and ad-hoc will still play an important part in our student’s experience this year and there are a number of mechanisms […]
Targets, trust and COVID-19 testing, by Christina Boswell
Political scrutiny of the UK’s management of COVID-19 has recently revolved around an ambitious target the government set for itself: the goal of carrying out 100,000 tests per day by the end of April. The debacle around this target exemplifies many of the challenges – and paradoxes – generated by the use of quantitative targets […]
