Brittany Higgins has, by pursuing charges against her alleged rapist, told the world that women matter, she matters and sexual assault needs to stop. Despite a system set up to fail victims, she fights. For all of us. She deserves our support and respect.

Lesson design is not a lottery. it is teacher core professional intellectual labour to ensure engagement and equity. Lose it and we are drones. #morethanthanks #Echobox=1665914945-1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">smh.com.au/national/nsw/s…

Teaching of #phonics in primary school puts kids off reading. Which is why phonics was complemented by other approaches last time. Here we go again. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

@Melanie_Baak @arc_gov_au @UniSA_CRESI @UniversitySA @unisaresearch @UniSAEducation Congratulations Mel.All the best for this fabulous project

Wow! I am now an @arc_gov_au DECRA Fellow. Most excitingly the project will employ 10 African diaspora young people to work alongside me plus a PhD scholarship. Huge thanks to everyone who has supported me to get here @UniSA_CRESI @UniversitySA @unisaresearch @UniSAEducation

PM who lied about children overboard, coddled racists, evicted party moderates & undermined a modern Australia thinks PM who secretly accumulated ministries, habitually lied, sidelined remaining moderates & failed a modern Australia should stay in parliament. I'm shocked!

@TamePunk freshly censured for failing to smile at the entire Morrison cabinet

There is no ‘teacher shortage’. There are thousands of qualified experiences teachers who are no longer teaching. There’s a shortage of respect and proper compensation for teachers allowing them to actually teach.

If teachers say they need more time why not give them more time? Also, standardising practice is a recipe for boredom not quality. #Echobox=1659302222-1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">smh.com.au/national/nsw/t… #morethanthanks

Powerful demolition on @RNBreakfast by Marcia Langton of the racism behind opponents of the Voice. Indigenous Australians are members of the human race - not an inferior race - they are a people dispossessed and are owed recognition and demand justice.

Addressing the teacher shortage shouldn't involve lowering criteria to be a teacher--it should involve supporting teachers, paying them, and providing the resources needed to best serve students.

This letter makes a direct link between teaching for social justice and teacher autonomy. No wonder teacher capacity to design curriculum is under threat from scripted lessons. theguardian.com/education/2022… #morethanthanks
