I really enjoyed facilitating the 'Mapping the Wave' creative research methods workshop yesterday at the University of Sheffield. PGRs and ECRs from different disciplines explored this method and thought about how they might use it in their own work. Thanks to the PRN for hosting me.

Hello YOLO, you may ask, but I'm afraid I can't possibly answer that question. My favorite song is very temporal, whatever resonates strongly at a certain time. I may play it over and over for a while, or learn to play it on the guitar to get it out of my system! This week: Playing my piano, Weezer

Can I Stop Another from the Dark Waters CD. Harmonies by Gaea Knight.

Time for more music! Wrote this twenty something years ago when I was twenty something... Still as relevant now! I should really listen to myself 🤣 Listen to Can I Stop by Varyingdegreesofhelen on #SoundCloud

Another logo. This time it's for a Community of Practice for 'SEND' educators involved in 'student voice', and who want to co-develop student-led approaches - be that running accessible 'students as researchers' initiatives or simply supporting students to initiate conversations with each other.

Playing with logo designs tonight on Canva - and then PowerPoint (as Canva didn't want to do small case for some reason)... I quite like this one. It's to 'stamp' onto resources I'm making.

Please add me to your list. I have been developing an inclusive students as researchers (iSaR) model of student voice with groups of disabled students from specialist FE provisions around the UK. Building a community of practice for teachers of 'SEND' student voice. Thanks

02 - Shift Happens Inspired by a room where guests were encouraged to write/draw on the walls, and a night spent reading the messages and wondering about their authors.

Well, a shift has happened. Blue sky is a bit nice... Actually, Blue Skies was the name of my 1st band. So, here's one of my songs: Shift Happens (live). I thought of being other aspects of Helen Evans to this platform 🤠Listen to 02 - Shift Happens by I am Sam on #SoundCloud

I'm currently on an ESRC-funded Academic Placement at The University of Sheffield under the temporary supervision of Prof Dan Goodley and Dr. Lauren White. Amongst other things, I have been creating resources on accessible research practice. Each week, my hotel room has a different feature wall. 👍🤩👍
