Workload models in universities are unsustainable, leaving "academics feeling squeezed from all directions."

Excited to see my name in print today with @SBurrowsFBTEE for our co-authored chapter!
We wrote about a BA unit at @westernsydneyu for a new collection entitled 'Innovations in Teaching History'
Today’s highlight - receiving my comp. copy of “Innovations in teaching history”, featuring a chapter I co-wrote with @Rebekah_Reads. Even more exciting than the Olympics!

PS interviewing me was not the intrepid part!
My heart & best wishes go out to Jordan & the team. Doing an interview on the enlightenment with them earlier this year was a career highlight. An alarming attack on intrepid reporting. Take care guys. @friendlyjordies apple.news/ATPxEfXmMTjaCwmGp…
