My name is Tim Morgan and I Work at CSM in the department of Culture and Enterprise as an eLearning technologist. Together with my colleague Damien, I am responsible for the design and administration of the departments two distance learning courses.
The key aspects of the job I like are design (I studied Fine Art at Coventry University) and working with staff and students. Despite being on an academic grade, my role does feel ‘technician heavy’ with much more admin than I had imagined. I do have some contact with students running the Unit 7 ‘online intervention’ project which I facilitate but I would be looking at how I can be more active in teaching either through staff development sessions or should it become realistic, running some of the teaching sessions. I did do a PeTTLs teaching qualification many years ago but would like to build on this now with the PgCert.
Finally on a more personal level, in May 2018 I moved with my wife (Heide) to Berlin. This is a fabulous place and one in which I lived before between 1995-1999. I have an office at the Humboldt University where I do all my CSM work and fly every 3 weeks to London for various face to face meetings. I love cycling, languages and have a motorcycle.
