Dear All,

Thank you for your work this week.

We wave goodbye and thank you to colleagues finishing up in the Website and Communications teams: Charlie Myszkowski (MyEd), Catherine Munn (UX), Connor MacDougall and Adrian Cordero Rodriguez (Web Development). We couldn’t have done it without you.

We wave hello to the new super computer: Edinburgh to host UK’s national supercomputer as Chancellor confirms £750 million investment – GOV.UK

Looking forward to the Learning and Teaching conference next week LTW will be represented across a range of sessions. University of Edinburgh Learning & Teaching Conference | Institute for Academic Development

Please give your opinions on plans for sustainable printing: Sustainable Printing Staff Survey and use of AI in your studies UK students and staff: tell us your experiences with AI at university | Artificial intelligence (AI) | The Guardian

With more festivals each week, please do enjoy our local green spaces and waterways, just a stones throw from Argyle House Edinburgh Canal Festival – Edinburgh Canal Festival and consider supporting LTW’s own Andres at the book festival Vijay Khurana & Andrés N Ordorica: Boys to Men | What’s On | Edinburgh International Book Festival

It is lovely to see that  there is now a memorial news page for Richard Lawson following our fund raising bake sale last year. In memory of Richard, a passionate walker – Walking Scotland

In advance of our LTW all-staff meeting I have asked the Heads to compile their lists of top six achievements in their team. If there are team achievements you think they might have missed, please do give them a nudge.

Plenty new training courses running this month, so if you have a spare moment for a bit of R or SPSS, book your place now Digital Skills Summer Programme

Have a good weekend,

-Melissa
