This is pretty exciting for me, to see my alma mater lean in to diverse connections across disciplines. Higher ed is often so siloed when our world is becoming increasingly more interconnected. It remind me of a great book by David Epstein called Range, highlighting the importance of being a generalist in a highly specialized world. The problems we need to tackle are complex and often don't afford us a closed feedback loop that highly specialized tasks do. Students that can see throughlines between art, science, and the humanities will enter the workforce more accustomed to the complex realities of modern work. Go Loggers!

Today was my first step in achieving an Associate Fellowship at the University of Hull by completing the Passport to Teaching Workshop. The next step is taking what I have learnt and applying it to teach students. This will develop skills that I have gained over many years of outreach and demonstrating labs over the years, as I progress into something that will be brand new for me. Expanding my HE knowledge and pushing myself to the next level. The workshop was a great insight into the planning and execution of teaching in HE, especially with how to retain student engagement levels and how students learn the best.

These are American stats but important nonetheless as we re-think what higher education can be.

🏛️Do the classics have a place in modern education? I am a firm believer that they do. However not how you might think. 🏺Recent news from a great school in my hometown of London, Newham Collegiate Sixth Form Centre (The NCS), that they are offering classes in the classics to enhance the classroom. 🧐This is a great opportunity to see the foundations of our modern world. I would argue that on those foundations there is also far more to explore. 📚Renaissance humanism was built on classical thought and on humanism was built the Age of Enlightenment and eventually our own modernity. 🎭Engaging with thinkers, writers, arts, across the ages creates a foundation for modern learning in the Information Age. 🏆Engagement with it all is vital to see the world clearly and I know that this foundation being built by Newham will pay off massively for the students undertaking their journey into classical thought. #educationalleadership #classics #teaching
