At this uncertain time it can be a daunting task to manage time effectively. As many of us adjust to working remotely, while others learn to adapt to working in a different atmosphere on campus, time management can be challenging. This is a practical opportunity to review your personal style in terms of how you manage your work, people, administration, work-life balance and so on. Contents: Virtual working and managing various work pressures along with the challenges of care duties etc. have stretched most of us lately. This workshop will be an opportunity to think about these new pressures and the impact on our time, as well as an opportunity to consider ways of working more effectively both individually and as a team. At the end of this workshop trainees should be able to: • Identify problems and produce an action plan. • Identify patterns of procrastination. • Work better through effective planning and prioritising. • Make effective use of your diary/personal planner • Streamline/get rid of piles of paperwork and burdensome e-mails. • Make effective use of time with others.   Mari Ellis Roberts Mari is a Human Resources Officer at Bangor University and is responsible for in-house Staff Development provision.

This resource is built on a series of behaviour change workshops. The resource is a presentation recording that conceptualizes rational and irrational behaviour, discusses the factors affecting the choice of Welsh medium higher education, and outlines a behaviour change framework and a worked example. The resource would be of relevance to anyone within the higher education sector seeking to use a behavioural approach to changing behaviour. Such an approach recognises the importance of framing decisions and the irrational character of behaviour, and has become popular amongst governments and policymakers. The presentation can be watched, and the worked example can provide some inspiration for using a behavioural approach.

Bovine TB (bTB) is one of the main animal health and welfare challenges in Wales and was responsible for the slaughter of 10,974 cattle in Wales between June 2019 and May 2020 (DEFRA, 2020). It is estimated that the disease costs the taxpayer £15 million annually in Wales alone, which includes veterinary costs, compensation to farmers, administrative costs, etc. Furthermore, dealing with the disease has an effect on the mental health of those involved. The link between wildlife and bTB is an obvious one that fuels much debate, but what about the role that the environment plays in nurturing and spreading this disease? There are scientists who have already explored this question by successfully demonstrating at laboratory level that the conditions present in the cow’s environment are favourable for M. bovis. Despite this, research at farm level remains scarce, especially in areas that suffer from chronic cases of bTB. The purpose of this literature review is to summarise the current situation in Wales, and the state of our knowledge regarding environmental bTB.
