My final post on X was caused by tweets like this appearing in feed. Please please please UK Geography teachers reassure me that cloud coverage and weather will always be taught in school….

This week in CPD we focussed on ‘checking for understanding’ with a deep dive into the best techniques as well as most common pitfalls.

Reading pulled together here, and condensed into a 20minute podcast for ease!

Tonight is the test of just how many Irish people are here, and just how much we can baffle anyone who isn't Irish.

See you later...

As a husband of an Irish wife the importance of today is not lost on me… we have snack boxes filled, matching Jim jams on and we are ready for the #LateLateToyShow @latelateshow.rte.ie

A really powerful (if not sobering) meeting of the @schoolsnortheast.bsky.social advisory board this morning

Looking for a way to bookmark posts on BlueSky so that you have a vault of saved posts (like the bookmark feature on X). DM me and I can set one up for you - I have created a feed that will save posts when you reply to them by placing a 🔖 (bookmark) in the post

Next up is @aienglishteacher.bsky.social who starts by telling us that it is more about artificial than intelligence… wise words!
This is a really straight forward stuff but important to show!

After a weekend of playing about with different models, websites and apps (all AI based) I am going to suggest that the biggest barrier to us all using AI day to day is our fear of being replaced and therefore the effect it has on openness to find strengths in the usage…

I observed an excellent peer to peer cpd session this week on use of visualiser; and this was the main thing… MAKE SURE STUDENTS CAN SEE WHAT TOU WANT THEM TO SEE
Whether you have tables in rows, groups or singles, put something on your board & go and sit on every chair

Can you read the text?
Are there obstructions?
Are there distractors?

If you’re expecting students to read/see from a board you need to check that it’s actually visible
