@MsACMoore @ashjclery @LibrariesIre Think those of us who are already seeing AI used in homework tasks every day have some valid concerns regarding what’s coming down the line

@msfitztweets @ashjclery @LibrariesIre Just read it there(hat tip @msfitztweets ) The author seems to have an awful lot of trust in the DoE...an awful lot.

I can’t read this as it’s behind a paywall but from the headline what the hell? 🙈 #edchatie

@sarfern @TraleeESC Sorry to hear this @sarfern I’ve used this resource with 3 different groups with great results. It’s even helped with my own confidence in modelling personal writing for students. It’s clearly taken years of tweaking for you to get to it to this high standard! Very unfair

The slides on the left are from my Personal Writing Unit and were delivered free of charge to teachers of English as part of a series of webinars with @TraleeESC. The Unit was a labour of love. The ones on the right have been for sale to students across Ireland, but not by me.

@Dar_DarB @coldplay @TicketmasterIre I started at 4169 and couldn’t even get a “enhanced experience” ticket when I got in..40 mins later. So either @TicketmasterIre only had less than 5000 tickets available for the Sunday orrrr their website is a joke and fans are once again disappointed!

How was I 4,800 in the queue for Coldplay tickets and still couldn’t get a ticket 🥹@coldplay @TicketmasterIre #coldplaydublin

@edmondbehan1 @CJ_Fallon Currently using the 2024 version, it’s a great textbook Edmond. Fair play

@MissMasonPE1 Would love a copy, my email is lfitzpatrick@clonasleecollege.ie thank you so much for sharing 🙂🙂

I hosted a ‘revision seminar’ today for our Year 11 students and couldn’t believe how many students turned up! I put together a PowerPoint that I am happy to share, if it helps anyone to support their students.

@MsStacyS @CorkHTA Finishing American Rev next week!

@sccenglish @JenniferHorgan5 I had an incidental this year. The inspector told me every single lesson should begin with LOs being copied down by students! 🤐

@JenniferHorgan5 Inspectors are addicted to them.

@conorsmurf @GleesonMiss The JCT English website resource on identifying camera angles in short film does not mention these essential terms!! Between this q and the 3 poems I’m baffled!

@GleesonMiss Yep. I just hope the JCT don't try to spin this in any upcoming CPD. They have a habit of trying to justify exam questions. Someone needs to come out and say, "yep, we were wrong, sorry".

What the f*ck is an Upshot in film? A Downshot? Seriously? And this is a state exam? Go help us all.

@ChrisH367 Would appreciate a copy my email is lfitzpatrick@clonasleecollege.ie

Just put the finishing touches to my masterclass for Macbeth. Really hard to narrow down but I am really please with this one. If anyone would like a copy please DM and I will send across tomorrow. Dropbox not working. #teamenglish #gcse2022 #gcseenglish #aqaliteraturepaper2

@LornaMcVicars I would love to get a copy my email is lfitzpatrick@clonasleecollege.ie thank you so much for sharing

History teachers, if you want ppts (would do half a term) on historical mysteries for a history club, DM me. I created them so sure OK to share. Sessions on: princes in Tower, Jack the Ripper, Malaysia Airlines MH370, Roanoke, Salem witch trials, Titanic & (to come) Anastasia.

@CoffeeInClass @INOTEnews @TeamEnglishIre It might not be what you want exactly but I’ve a document with all the past style questions from each year’s reading comprehensions? Most questions at least hint at the genres you’re dealing with?

@sccenglish Fantastic work Julian, this express all our concerns in the most informed manner as always.

@MuinteoirGraham @ClaregalwayColl I’d love a copy it looks fantastic, my email is lfitzpatrick@clonasleecollege.ie

@noelahogan @Education_Ire Agreed. Two extra lines of space for a 10m question when compared to 4m? How were the students meant to figure it out without marks? 😬 feel I’m caught between rushing to finish the course, revise material and try prepare for some mystery exam!

@het_ireland @IFI_Dub I don’t think I have the option to DM but currently teaching the Holocaust and this sounds like a fantastic opportunity for students. Would like more info on how to view

We are proud to present 'The Lesson' for free streaming at schools with @IFI_Dub from Feb 7th. This fascinating film looks at the experience of four German teenagers as they learn about the Holocaust. Please DM us for more info on viewing. #holocaust #film #irishfilm

@MaryellenOKeef2 @INOTEnews Did relationships as theme before and had to then narrow it to a type of relationship. Felt like students were comparing within one text rather than with the other 2 e.g Tom and Daisy vs Tom and Myrtle in TGG!

Advice please re comparative!I've largely avoided theme as mode,prefer GVV,LG,CC.I have 5th yr HL group,I foresee several sitting O Level, so I need modes that work for both. My❓:Is the theme of relationships a bit weak- does it need to be meatier? @INOTEnews
