  • Useful content but audio speed issue

    I like the content but the audio speed should be adjusted to avoid making the sound so robotic.

    I came across the podcast and in particular the talk about AI use in the classroom while seeking similar podcast talks. This was excellent and has given me some great starting points to explore for my own teaching. You have a new subscriber! Thank you!

  • Great topics but very hard to listen

    I’m in academia and I love the topics in this podcast, but it is very hard to listen to. The guest usually the one I can’t hear clearly. I need to be in a very quite room to be able to understand.

    Please fix it.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Campus Talks: Why it takes more than a PhD to become a good doctoral supervisor
Q: What are the skills required for good graduate supervision?
Relational and interpretive skills are crucial—listening carefully, reading work generously, setting clear expectations, and managing boundaries and timelines, rather than relying solely on disciplinary expertise.
Campus Talks: Why small changes make a big difference to accessibility in higher education
Q: How can a department begin to make accessible changes without it feeling like a massive burden?
Start with one concrete action, one conversation, and one question in the next department meeting, such as adding an accessibility score to a syllabus, discussing captioning, and asking what else can be done this month. This small scope makes change manageable and sustainable.
Campus Talks: Why small changes make a big difference to accessibility in higher education
Q: What is the most important adaptation you see in universities that boosts accessibility?
The most important adaptation is integrating disability voices into strategic planning and ensuring that someone with a disability is actively involved in conversations from the start, rather than treating accessibility as an afterthought or checkbox. This continuous inclusion helps drive meaningful, system-level change.
Campus Talks: How to maximise the essential relationships between university academic and professional services staff
Q: What practical steps can universities take to integrate professional services more fully from the start of curriculum discussions?
Universities should deliberately draw on professional services experts from the outset, involve them in planning, ensure they have formal pathways and recognition, and treat them as essential partners in teaching and learning rather than as remedial support.
Campus Talks: How to maximise the essential relationships between university academic and professional services staff
Q: Do you think there is enough visibility and opportunity for professional services staff to develop professionally?
There is willingness, but real promotion and progression pathways for professional services staff are often behind those available to academics, which makes it harder to dedicate time to development and to feel recognized for expertise.
