When marking reflective writing, I feel the number of criteria should be reduced at the expanse of the number of bands for providing detail, depth and thoughtful comments on own performance. Two main areas should stand out - performance and areas for improvement. #acwri #tleap

This ad automatically excludes folk who do not want to use AI in their practice because they don't consider it useful/ necessary for their subject. This means they have no right of refusal to use AI, scrapping any inclusivity that academia promotes #tleap #AI

I feel this is part of #academicintegrity Being considerate to how or whether you contribute to a conversation (for those participating) and making sure you clearly state the profile of participants you need (for researchers) #tleap

When diversifying for mixed level groups, I think authenticity of task should take precedence over authenticity of content. The task would give them procedural knowledge, which is a transferable skill. They can engage with more complex content outside of class too. #tleap

I’m always dismayed when academic English teachers push from the bottom up to impose top-down arbitrary writing requirements e.g. formatting, citation conventions, essay formats? Surely as EAP teachers we should at least be discussing/problematising these? #tleap @EapForSJ

A must read paper on prestige generation, status and agency to opt-out of #GenAI use in academia #tleap #LTHEchat link.springer.com/article/10.100…

I never expected reading up on research methodologies can be so invigorating - makes your mind tango with the possibilities and realities. Can external obstructions be a heavenly manna for the researcher and make them unleash their creativity? #education #tleap #research

Sorry to have missed this, anyone attend? Anti highlights? #tleap

I think first person student writing should follow genre specificities and disciplinary conventions. I'm thinking they could perhaps use 1st person when discussing their methodology in certain fields by way of expressing their voice as a researcher and decision maker #tleap

Bee Bond & I are giving a hybrid talk ‘Language & Legitimation in Higher Education’ Wednesday, November 20 5-7pm at the University of Leeds This is our joint inaugural public lecture to mark our promotion to Professor of EAP details in the link #tleap eventbrite.co.uk/e/profs-bee-bo…

Looks very useful for #tleap Interesting points of comparison with @Michell04246373 and @alexanderding recent social theory book which has related aims. …achinginhighereducation.wordpress.com/2024/10/06/spe…

Check out our chapter in Studies in Language Testing. Lots of useful work in this series for #tleap and assessment folk

Volume 56 of the Studies in Language Testing series includes a chapter from me and @EdTedC about teachers working in #tleap assessment roles. Lots of other interesting case studies in the volume, too. Open access: cambridgeenglish.org/english-resear… @taf_sig @TEd_EAP

It is dead here. I have opened an account on Bluesky but not done much there. If we want #tleap discussions I doubt it will happen here (never mind the ethics of X) and we might want to think about setting up a space elsewhere collectively. At the moment its very fragmented

Despite only tweeting and liking the niche topic of #tleap my timeline on this app shows me anything but... Where can online discussions happen now? Linkedin? BALEAP mailing list? Mastodon? Missed this at the time but reposting as it's a good question with good thread so far.

Needs analysis is associated with practical pedgogical outcomes: designing / evaluating a course. Could it also be used for social critique? Even Benesch's work was about working within existing educational systems, rather than as a study of the education system itself. #tleap

I also found the "oracy as competence" vs "oracy for learning" (discipline specific) interesting. It seems one should precede, or be a prerequisite, for the other in the case of international EAP students. Or should it? #tleap

The essay is dead, long live the essay! Katia Dowdle on a pilot project of "oral essay" Could that be the answer to students' misuse of AI for producing academic work? #BALEAP2023 @baleap #tleap

#BALEAP2023 for me: ✏️ Thought-provoking sessions ✏️ Engaging discussions ✏️ Inspiring conversations ✏️ New peeps/peaps ✏️ A chance to present my research/ ideas Thank you to the organisers for a great and ideas-rich event! @uniofwarwick @baleap #tleap

A short piece on IFP students' use of machine translation suggesting we should be open about this (agreed) and encourage, even provide training to students on how to do it (definitely don't agree there) InForm journal, issue 22, p32-33 #tleap

Do we in #tleap even feel a moral obligation to read? I don't think so...

Interesting read re role of HE in the future. #tleap #HigherEd #AI
