Scholarly Activity Forum

High Melton, Doncaster
April 2nd 2009
This evening's (yep evening: 7 'til 9) staff development session for Doncaster's University centre (part of the local college), was on why staff should conduct scholarly activities and what it means.
The latest session I've ever delivered went well and included wine (I was driving so don't know if it was any good or not), although as the college is attempting to engender a research culture while expecting staff to deliver 850 hours plus of HE per year, most of the questions were perhaps understandably about how other colleges manage to do it, and not about how to go about it.
As a result, there'll be a collection of best practice examples available through the main PlayingwithLearning website as soon as I've decided on the format.
