Simon Horrocks, Academic Lead for Digital Education Strategy <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Name: <\/strong>Simon Horrocks<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Role at the University: <\/strong>Academic Lead for Digital Education Strategy<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is your role in the Digital Education Programme?<\/strong>
Working full-time on the Digital Education Programme, my focus is squarely on ensuring the University provides a high-quality digital learning experience for all its students in the new academic year. I get to work with all the fantastic volunteers from Schools who are co-creating the various elements of the programme and I am also leading the working group which is developing the Digital Education Framework.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What do you enjoy most about being part of the programme?<\/strong>
Having only joined the University in May, it\u2019s been great to work so closely with colleagues from right across the University from day one. The best kind of induction!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A fact about yourself?<\/strong>
This is my second time working for Cardiff University (I was a lecturer in JOMEC at the beginning of my career). When I left I had a short break from academic life, running a record stall on Camden market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beth ydych chi’n ei fwynhau fwyaf am fod yn rhan o’r rhaglen?
<\/strong>Ar \u00f4l ymuno \u00e2’r Brifysgol ym mis Mai yn unig, mae wedi bod yn wych gweithio mor agos \u00e2 chydweithwyr o bob rhan o’r Brifysgol o’r diwrnod cyntaf. Y math gorau o groeso!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ffaith amdanoch chi’ch hun?
