A list of the 50 most influential higher education professionals using social media in the UK has been released.

The line-up was created after Jisc, the sector’s main technology body, asked university workers to nominate people who were using social media in unique or interesting ways.

The nominees were whittled down to a top 50 by a judging panel, which included Chris Parr, digital and communities editor at Times Higher Education. He was joined by Eric Stoller, a blogger for Inside Higher Ed and Russell Stannard, founder of Teacher Training Videos, as well as David Kernohan and Sarah Knight from Jisc.

Most of the top 50 primarily use Twitter, but other social networks such as Facebook are represented too.
