 <\/p>\n

It\u2019s back – #HEblogswap, now in its third year, is on Wednesday 12th September.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We\u2019d like the Higher Education Development Community to join us again this year!<\/p>\n

How do I get started? <\/b><\/p>\n

If you work in a Centre for Excellence in Learning and Teaching or equivalent, or have your own blog with a higher educational focus, then you should find a partner first (tweet with the hashtag #HEblogswap<\/a>), write for each other\u2019s blogs (either get an account or send a word document to each other and ask the other person to add your name to the blog post) and post on the 12th September with the hashtag #HEblogswap.<\/p>\n

We hope to read some interesting posts from the higher educational development communities and share practice, before the autumn term starts at Universities across the UK.<\/p>\n

If you are on Twitter, please tweet \u2013<\/p>\n

Blog swap! Find a blog partner, write for each other, post on 12 Sept! Tweet #HEblogswap (and find a partner on the hashtag!). Happy writing and reading!<\/p>\n

Make this September #HEblogswap month. Find a blog partner, write for each other\u2019s blogs and post on 12th September. Don\u2019t forget to comment on other blogs tweets via the #HEblogswap.<\/p>\n

Find out what happened last year via this blog post<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Happy Blogging and Reading!<\/p>\n
