Here are my reflections on the learning and teaching conference held at Staffordshire University. My own pointed comment later in my own keynote was that disengagement and distraction during lectures is probably more a symptom of the dull nature of some lectures than it is about the attractiveness of personal devices.

In my last post I discussed Daniel S Christian''s three trends of an emerging pedagogy. I speculated on whether a new social divide might also emerge as a result of the new pedagogy he outlines. Christian argues that much of the change we are currently witnessing in teaching methods is driven by new technologies.

After all, teachers are paid to teach, and students are there to learn, right? If you subscribe to a kind of pedagogy where you believe that facilitating learning is more effective than direct instruction, you will probably recognise the potential. This is a version of teaching, and we all learn by teaching.

Allow me elaborate: Many of our pedagogical theories and much of our practice in higher education is grounded in, and has been derived from, a pre-digital era, when the lecturer or professor was central to the process of education, and where the classroom was the predominant place for learning to take place. Academic roles are changing.

This mini series on love was inspired by a lecture from a colleague entitled ''What''s love got to do with it?'' The key take away from his lecture was that all good relationships have a basis of love and good teaching needs good relationships. In my two most recent posts I considered the role love plays in education.

A recent tweet by Jason Elsom made me sit up and take notice: 'We need to stop designing schools for teaching and start designing schools for learning.' Do they lecture, or do they support? We can either place an emphasis on teaching or we can privilege learning as the most important facet of education. Which do you favour?

He is also very insightful about what some might consider the more mundane aspects of teaching.

However, I also realize that “teaching presence” can be very valuable and in some cases may be indispensable.

It’s a hitchhiker sitting unobtrusively in the back seat of the school bus—a place where pedagogy has yet to go. Because of time and cost pressures, people who teach in the corporate environment often do not have the same relationship with learners as can be found in some of the more traditional school environments.

"I never teach my students. When they were in school, college or university, they were probably required to attend lectures and classroom teaching sessions where they were expected to ''receive knowledge'' and then go away and attempt to make sense of it in an essay, project or examination.
