3E education–> Keyth Smith

Fears, hopes and reimaginings: learning and teaching within, through and beyond the pandemic (#SOLSTICE2020)
For many years I have had the privilege of attending and presenting at a number of the annual SOLSTICE technology-enhanced learning conferences run by Edge Hill University, presenting in latter years in my role as a Visiting Professor in education within the Centre for Learning and Teaching at Edge Hill University. Due to the COVID-19 […]
Overview and thanks – ‘Digital Learning: The Key Concepts (Second Edition)’
In my first blog posts of 2019, back in March, I was sharing news of the book ‘Conceptualising the Digital University: The intersection of policy, pedagogy and practice’ which myself and my good friends and colleagues Bill Johnston and Sheila MacNeill had just had published. Our book was a labour of love, informed by several […]
Conceptualising the digitally distributed curriculum at #SOLSTICE19
On Wednesday 5th June this week I’m presenting at the annual SOLSTICE 2019 e-learning conference at Edge Hill University, which is organised and run as a joint conference by Edge Hill’s SOLSTICE Centre for Excellence in Teaching and Learning (@SolsticeCETL) and the Centre for Learning and Teaching at EDU (@CLTatEHU). The joint SOLSTICE and CLT […]
Coming full (culture) circle at #OER19 – Part 1
This is the first of two blogs posts that accompany the session “Unpacking the geopolitics of open for the strategic development of (HE) institutions and communities – what is a university for?” that Sheila MacNeill, Bill Johnston and myself ran on day one of #OER19 on 10th April. Sheila will post Part 2, reflecting on […]

For International Women’s Day 2019, the Learning and Teaching Academy at the University of the Highlands and Islands are running our second annual #InternationalWomensDay event. Our #IWD2019 organisers Alex Walker and Ann Tilbury, two inspiring women, asked everyone who is participating today to share in advance their own inspirational women. This is who I chose […]
Thanks and acknowledgements for ‘Conceptualising the Digital University’
Long before we got to the point of having an opportunity to write the book that became ‘Conceptualising the Digital University: The Intersection of policy, pedagogy and practice’, Bill Johnston, Sheila MacNeill and myself benefited from early discussions and dialogue about the idea and implications of the ‘digital university’ with a great many colleagues across the […]
Recently published – Conceptualising the Digital University: The intersection of policy, pedagogy and practice
Well, it’s almost exactly a year since my last blog post. I blog sporadically, so it’s likely no one has noticed! It’s not good practice to blog so infrequently, although I have a good reason. Around this time last year, my friends and colleagues Bill Johnston, Sheila MacNeill and myself were undertaking, in earnest, the writing […]
Open practice and praxis in the context of the Digital University. #OER18
This week saw the latest in a small series of writing workshops for Bill Johnston, Sheila MacNeill and myself for our forthcoming book Conceptualising the Digital University: Intersecting policy, pedagogy and practice (Palgrave). Our work on this book has been a very enjoyable slow-burn, originating five or so years ago with the application of Sheila and […]

The theme of the Special Issue is Student Transitions and the issue has been published in partnership […]
Situating digital space and place within the Porous University
