Ideally it works, but too often itâs a disaster
As someone who was active in off-campus teaching for some 30 of a 50-year career in higher education, and with awards and media coverage for my innovations, I am nevertheless concerned at proposals such as the use of pre-recorded lectures combined with a weekly or fortnightly seminar. This strategy can work where lecture equivalents are updated, seminar sizes are limited to 30 or so well-prepared students, and they take place in purpose-designed classrooms with movable seating to allow for break-out groups.

Lightbulb moment on gay conversion laws fails to match a real need

GAY CONVERSION LAWS
Thereâs an old joke among therapists. How many therapists does it take to change a light bulb? None, because the lightbulb has to want to change itself. The truth contained within this joke is patients are often motivated by wanting to change aspects of themselves or understand themselves better.
When it comes to sexual orientation or gender identity, which are two very different areas and should not be conflated, many people of course have no need for a therapist because indeed nothing requires fixing, but it is not true for all. There are patients who seek counselling because they may be conflicted or confused or uneasy about certain feelings or thoughts of themselves.
