Our academic colleagues are working hard to play their part in tackling the Corona Virus. We are seeing increased use of all our learning technology systems and receiving great, positive feedback on the support, training and expertise we are providing. I am so impressed by how well our teams and services are responding to this situation. This situation is unprecedented, but I trust that we will try hard and make it work.ĭirector LTW Friday 27th March Empty streets I realise that we still have a lot to sort out about how we keep working, in our homes and with our families and pets who need us. Gavin has asked me to pass on his thanks for ‘ The wonderful and immense response from LTW to the challenge of moving to remote teaching. Please give my thanks to everyone involved’. Thank you also for all the extraordinary measures you have taken to ensure that the University is successful in continuing learn, teach and web. Thank you for all your work in getting set up to work from home, for looking after each other, and for taking care to be safe and well. Well done all, for making it through what must be one of the craziest weeks at work, ever. They already serve to be an impressive list of what the teams have been doing. I’ll keep them here to look back upon when we come out the other side. In my messages I try to focus on achievements and successes. Reassuringly, in the University we are getting a steady stream of high-level communications from HR and ‘the very top’. Every Friday I write a message to my teams in LTW.
