Some say it looks boring, but for me it makes it standardised and easy to manage as it’s all code! Also in the age of Copilot, editors understand code better.
Here’s my frequently used LaTeX packages to make my worksheets.

I have a new article out in the Chartered College of Teaching journal Impact, called ‘Embedding AI in education: A critique’. Here I make five main points, which I will helpfully plop in this thread for those without access or time to read it.

For many teachers, teaching has become a tedious treadmill of performativity. Many I speak with say that we need to bring joy back into teaching - and professional trust. We need an end to a culture of chasing ever-better attainment stats regardless of the educational costs (2/2)
