@taylornation13 here is a little vintage Taylor swift from my 3 beautiful girls sent to me on my first (and only) visit to New York in 2017. Hanging for tickets to Eras tour in Sydney Feb 24!!

@AnneKnock My EdD definitely starts with a clear, distinct research question - and I’m nearly finished!

Hi Andrea, I'm nearly at the end of my PhD journey & I've been pondering this tweet since I read it a couple of weeks ago. I'm not so sure that it's so cut & dried as suggested. My research was definitely prompted by an emerging problem I had been observing over the last 10yrs.

@TamePunk Good to see you back in action. Love your work. Keep going hard & being yourself…😎

@BrionyScott Absolutely & they always will be. We love them deeply and abidingly - they are our nation and our world’s future. We will fight tooth & nail to give them our best every day.

I’m not arguing the thesis - but imagine if educators wrote a joint letter on how to run the hospital system. I will correct one comment. For educators, our children have not once been forgotten. They are our raison d’être, especially over the last 2yrs. smh.com.au/national/for-t…

@JuliaGillen Sounds like a great position Julia! Can you please keep me in touch with the research project - very definitely my field & passion.....

Join our ESRC project on Research Mobilities in Primary Literacy Education! First of two PostDoc positions now advertised here bit.ly/ResearchEd21

@robyngcox1 Hello my supervisor! Nice to see you back in the Twitter sphere…..

back on twitter - please be kind ..

My favourite mug got broken…. Anyone know of one for sale??

@BrionyScott Dear Briony, you inspire.... speak from the heart - from a fellow educator & dad of 3 daughters...

Hmm... i'm a little locked in on the 'terrifying' bit just at the moment...i mean, what could possibly go wrong?! 😬

Quick shout out to @kmillerheidke . Is there an orchestral version of Zero Gravity? Cringeworthy I know but my oldest daughter (14) has learned the song & has amazingly (to me) written a 4 part strings version. Pardon the dad moment please!

@JimmyBarnes Have fun, lots of laughs, the world is changing. It’s an exciting time to be making new tunes....😎

One of the silver linings of the Covid year is that I’ve had time to write some new songs. Well we’re back in setting up the studio, getting ready for a week of recording. A new album “Flesh and Blood” coming your way before you know it

Does the 10 guest limit at home include the host?? It’s getting complicated again.... #COVID19nsw

@FiMorrison2 @MatthewXJoseph @MRsalakas @KarlOLeary4 Walking meditation - even with 2 noisy partners!!

Went on my first #thewalkingED walk today with my boys. A bit slow with 2 little people, but the hills made it work. Keen to build a habit for physical and mental health 🙌🏻

@LaurenMilburn31 @DrJeck It is a difficult question. I lead a sizeable primary school in Sydney Australia. No masks, no positive cases, back to full attendance, not closed for one day this year, lots of hygiene control - different contexts....

@DrJeck This should be a non-negotiable. In Virginia, we are supposed to wear masks in public places. A school is a public place. I want us to be able to start by having students in person part-time. If masks are not required, I believe any in-person learning will be short-lived.

I'm raising funds for The Salvation Army's Red Shield Appeal. Each week, the Salvos support people experiencing homeless, families in crisis, and people facing addiction. You can donate to my fundraiser today. digitaldoorknock.salvationarmy.org.au/andrew-coote #RedShieldAppeal via @salvos

@Stephen_H What we need is to hear from teachers, not from union leaders, not from politicians. Rational discussion & deliberate, intentional planning - not policy on the run.

Far from it What we need is to bring teachers into the equation with rapid ideas for government that seems only to be resorting to 'as it was' - without considering teacher anxieties, wellness etc in the current context.

Any thoughts on a safe digital tool that can be easily monitored & allows upper primary students the opportunity to connect & chat about life & learning? Other than Zoom....

Focus on maths and literacy, and don't beat yourself up, says minister smh.com.au/national/nsw/f… via @smh

Why is Zoom the most popular video tool for remote learning? What we DON’T need is a digital version of a normal lesson. We need to let our teachers be creative AND protect our students’ privacy.....

@RachelSaliba2 Sure. I am part of a K to 12 school. I am also father to 3 young girls & trying to finish my doctorate! I have been a school leader for 19 years but I am always looking for new ideas - growth is non-negotiable!

@AndrewCoote1 Would you be interested in a conversation about coaching support?

As a school leader, what are the best ways to support & encourage teachers remotely? Servant leader wanting some ideas!

Our primary students are coming up with some great remote learning initiatives. If we let them show the way, they can & will!
