I have a simple message for all #academics. If you are worried about students and your own career (because the education sector is not what it should be due to govt policies) then Join Your UNION and make it right.

Simple, tried and tested method to make your life and its outcomes that much better. Guaranteed. The more union members the better off the whole of society. Proven time and time again. Look it up!

I am undertaking research into attitudes towards and perceptions of contract cheating, within UK-based higher education.

Below is a link to an anonymous survey, which takes around 5-10 minutes to complete. The survey can be taken by #Students or #Teachers / #Lecturers / #Professors / #Tutors / #Instructors or anybody who has taught in some capacity at a UK-based higher educational facility. It does not matter if you reside in the UK, just that you taught / studied at a UK-based institution, no matter how long ago.

This research is for my #MBA #Dissertation and therefore all responses will be extremely helpful.

Thank you in advance for you consideration and participation.

Hello,

I teach an #introductory course to #dinosaurs in #EnvironmentalScience at #UMassBoston each spring.

I would be thrilled to host virtual or corporeal #guest #lecturers on subjects including #fossil preparation, reconstruction, dinosaurs in culture, #curation of fossils, et cetera. ½ hr to 50 minutes?

UMB is the only public research university in #Boston. We are diverse with ca. 40% first generation college students and 70% of undergraduate students being people of color.

Interested?

I taught full time at a French secondary school all ages groups FOR 1 YEAR! I could not do that until 64/5 and expect to recuperate anything resembling meaningful life from what’s left of the deal. Moan about holidays. Do the job (70+ hrs per week term time)! For me holidays were like therapy sessions ("He’s dribbling whisky again! The straw’s slipped out)! . There has to be a wonderful life at the end.
