I just completed the Generative AI for Educators course. It was a good overview of how to integrate AI into teaching. I would recommend it to other educators who want to learn more about the subject. 🤖 #AIinEducation

My daughter had the amazing opportunity to meet Tahereh Mafi at her book signing and Q&A session last week in Edinburgh. As a budding author herself, this night meant the world to her. So many creative sparks flying! 🤩📖 #TaherehMafi #AuthorLove

What an inspiring morning at the Red Book Awards on Friday! Loved hearing from all the brilliant authors and seeing the incredible, creative interpretations from the learners. The alternative book covers were especially fantastic! So much talent on display. 📚🎨 #RedBookAwards #CreativeLearning

Brilliant start to DLLW25 today with Andy and Laura from Canopy. Lots of interest in Gemini (especially canvas) 😯 ‘that’s one of the best things I’ve ever seen!’ and NotebookLM 👀 ‘I didn’t know we needed that until I saw it’. The Knoster/King model also giving LOTS of food for thought! 💭

Fantastic! Willow loved going for her walk!
We are absolutely delighted to share the total amount raised by our sponsored walk last week was £1,735.60.
Thank you so much to everyone for the generosity and support. We will further develop the garden area with a sand pit, a shaded area and a woodland path with play bark, new bushes and trees.

Loved learning about how easy is it to add captions in the Adobe Express video creation session this week! It's amazing how much you can do with this tool. I love their diverse animation characters too! #AdobeExpress #VideoTips #Animation

Great to see progress! 🎉 We already do our best to avoid deficit-based language, but let's encourage wider adoption of positive terms that truly reflect deaf identity. This BATOD resource is key! 🗣️➡️👂 shorturl.at/zxqy4 #DeafGain #PositiveLanguage #Inclusion
