Hey @tellomobile, can I activate my eSIM (to use in the USA) while I am still in Australia? Do I need to wait until I am in the states to do this?

@latitude_fs Had a question about a credit card that I sent through as a DM. Hope you can get me an answer that helps! Thx

@arneduncan Just saw the Learning Gap story on PBS News Hour. The academic gap is important and gets attention, but the perception gap that adults have is a hidden thorn in our students’ achievement. pbs.org/video/learning…

@mrlockyer Do you happen to eat lunch in your car...?

@ColesFinService Just DM'd you.

@KevinByers Hi @KevinByers thanks for reaching out, so we can look into this further could you please send us a direct message with your contact number and email address?

@ColesFinService I was told that because my income is from a foreign company, and does not have an associated ABN, that I was not eligible for a card. Was the person I talked to on the phone correct?

Interesting result from #ChatGPT.

@davidwees State testing!

100% this. I entered education because of the exact opposite reasons. I think approaching it with that experience and viewpoint served me well.

Happy #TeacherAppreciationWeek from @zoom. FYI... if you are using the free version, you are now limited to 40 minutes for all 1-1 meetings. :(

After my wife built a virtual tutoring business based on @Zoom during the pandemic, the sudden shift to time limited 1-1 meetings was quite a surprise. Hello Google Meet!

We’re looking for independent contractors. Have experience implementing competency-based education at the district or classroom level? Have 20 hours/week available to support CBE implementations? Let’s talk! Contact Sean Duncan: sean@empowerlearning.net drive.google.com/file/d/12PyCGP…

Quite disappointed that @khanacademy has removed their API and doesn't support LTI. It would be so much easier if they played well with others... :(

Great piece to support the development of Empower Playlists. #WhereEducationIsPersonal #WestyStrong

I'm working on an LMS integration project (finger crossed it all works). Does anyone have a sample course that has been exported directly from Canvas that I can test with? Bonus points if it has a quiz! :)

@Optus Why is there a monthly and a 2 year contract plan if they cost the same?

@KevinByers I'm sorry that you've been left feeling this way, Kevin. You can learn about your plan here → bit.ly/2WZmLtt or on your contract which should have been provided you to prior to signing up. If you have any questions feel free to DM us so we can assist - Ness

@optus has an NBN $70/month plan that is month to month and a $70/month plan that is for 24 months. They say there is no difference except that the second plan has a huge early termination fee. Guess which they put you on by default if you are not clear enough when signing up?🤨

@Optus When it is your older in-laws who might not have understood, this doesn’t help now. Now they have a $300 fee to pay. Still not sure why you put people on a contract when the month to month is much better for them. Seems like you just want to lock people in.
