Their fess but I'm worried I've married a complete thicko. My partner came home from work, having not drunk all day because the cordial I'd made was too strong. They didn't realise they could have just gone to the tap and diluted it.

I just finished my last ever Software Design and Development hsc class (the course has changed) after 25 years! Wow, time goes fast when you are having fun.

I'm looking for recent articles about teacher/instructional rounds. To give teachers background before we do revive them next term. Ping @cpaterso

"Following the evidence is not resulting in the progress we might expect. Evidence is much harder to tame and to apply sensibly in education than elsewhere. We don’t have enough evidence to be confident that evidence should be our first port of call." theconversation.com/schools-are-us…

"To try to enforce a single template is bad education and bad science... To try to base whole systems of education on such binary nonsense is not just specious, it is seriously damaging." Via @GuyClaxton

New AI job: Prompt Engineer "The key skillset for a programmer is actually not to write code. The important skill is how to decompose a complicated task into a sequence of several more tasks"..."This kind of skill will transfer to prompt engineering." abc.net.au/news/science/2… #AI

Will this “AI moment” be different to previous supposed watershed moments in education? How do we prepare young people for AI worlds? Open forum (Zoom) to discuss Open AI in education. 4pm AEST Mon 6 March. Facilitated by @largerama. RSVP to me via DM.

@cpaterso @largerama ATM ChatGPT is free. Will it continue to be free? If not, will only the well off will be able to access/afford it? Will this make the education more inequitable?

I wonder what this is?

@brettmaverick63 That is a good question. And when they do start using it how will we know?

@sailpip Who says they aren’t already?
