This month sees the launch of a new Twitter chat #HEAchat which will take place on the last Tuesday of each month from 6.30-7.30pm. This will be
a regular, open forum for academics to come together and share their experiences of teaching and learning in HE/FE with a particular focus on disciplinary issues in teaching and learning. Join us for a chance to connect with teaching and learning practitioners
beyond your institution or discipline, share ideas and together find new, inventive ways to face challenges and be creative in your teaching and learning practice. - See more at:

Finally, we are hosting a series of free
lunchtime research webinars which offer you the opportunity to come together to debate critical issues in HE learning and teaching. Taking newly-available pedagogic research and resources
as their starting point, our webinars are aimed at those who want to keep up-to-date with new thinking to improve their practice, inform their institutional strategy, and develop policy. Our first on the pedagogies of partnership is on 7 October . You can

Best wishes
