Excited to discover this morning that the 20th Gender and Education Association Conference will be held in Guruk/Port Macquarie (hosted by @CharlesSturtUni) in June 2024! genderandeducation.com/conference/

Celebrating this publication with my wonderful colleagues @TonyaCallaghan @leanne_higham and Alix Esterhuizen: "Religious reactions to gender identity: a comparative analysis of select Canadian and Australian Catholic schools" in Gender and Education! 😊 tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

Noticed today the News Corp website says that "social purpose has always been core to our mission... Through our diversity, equity & inclusion practices...we aim to have a positive impact on all our employees, ... customers, audiences and communities"; and I am completely baffled

@AustAssocResEd @RMIT @roztward Congratulations Roz! So looking forward to reading it!!

@lizziemaughan You absolutely did! Thanks again, you're a superstar!

@DrNomyn I think you've probably spoken by now, so just wanted to say how much I love that you wanted to talk about this in your speech :)

@lizziemaughan Lizzie, thanks so much for so kindly presenting my paper so that I could make sure I didn't pass on my illness to colleagues. It was incredibly generous of you and I greatly appreciate it :)

@jolampert @AmyMak1601 Congratulations! I heard about this, such wonderful news! :)

Thrilled to be working with @AmyMak1601 and Bruce Burnett on a successful ARC Discovery. This project investigates the lived experiences of teachers who remain teaching in very high turnover schools in a time of unprecedented teacher shortages.

@bedforda1 @QUT Thanks for coming along! It was great to hear your thoughts! :)

@DrNomyn @blakeacutler @BarrieShannon_ @keithheggart @EveMayes Wow! Massive day!

@DrNomyn @blakeacutler @BarrieShannon_ @keithheggart @EveMayes Sounds awesome, when is it on?

@deanaleahy @MagdaSzubanski @MonashEducation @VicHealth Just watched the first two episodes! Oh my goodness, it was wonderful! Hoping people have shared some resources for easy and healthy snacks/meals for kids after seeing some of the brands we buy for our wee one featured as high in sugar! :)

🙏Thanks everyone for your suggestions re links to resources for Ep 2 of @MagdaSzubanski's Big National Health Check. So many. I'll be compiling the resources on a document and share the link here when I am done @MonashEducation @VicHealth - Mental Health is up next-stay tuned

Calling Australian folks who are non-binary, genderqueer, agender, or anything between / beyond the binary of man or woman. Please consider participating in an international comparative study by member @drloocy with @drsalclark and @EdenDowers surveyswesternsydney.au1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_3r…

@DrAimeeQuicks @DrNomyn @bedforda1 Oh my goodness Aimee, I loved this chapter so much - from having Goonies at its centre, to the conversational writing style, to your humour, to learning the ins and outs of a theory, it was a delight to read! ❤️

@MJeffries0 @DrNomyn @bedforda1 I am so glad you love this book - I would love it even if I wasn’t in it! The Goonies is so deeply embedded in my consciousness… definitely ‘good enough for me’!

Currently reading (devouring) @DrNomyn & @bedforda1 'Unlocking social theory with popular culture' for a symposium at #AAREConference. Loving this book so much! Hoping there are plans for a 2nd vol! Loving learning about theory through some of my fave shows/books like #goonies😍

@jolampert Yes! Definitely 🙂 Look forward to seeing you!

@MJeffries0 Hope I’ll see you at AARE !

Word is out. I am delighted to be joining The Faculty of Education at Monash next year as Professor of Teacher Education for Social Transformation. I will sorry miss my wonderful colleagues at La Trobe. A hard decision and exciting times ahead.
