@barrabest Thanks @barrabest. With the storm coinciding with heavy commuter times and key services (schools etc.) would a warning like this be passed onto key officials for urgent decisions?

@msrebeccabirch I was intrigued when opening the article, soon to be disappointed when I saw PISA scores included. In my opinion and experience, data from this assessment system is not robust.

The jury is in. For the most part, tech in the classroom produces poorer learning outcomes. The article is overly long but chock full of evidence about why we should reconsider its use. The EdTech Revolution Has Failed buff.ly/3Z6AMnp

These before and after Overviews of Valencia, Spain show the extent of flood damage throughout the region, where more than 200 people have died in one of the worst natural disasters in the nation’s history. Torrential downpours earlier this week caused flash flooding that turned streets into rivers, swept away vehicles and infrastructure, and coated neighborhoods with a thick layer of mud. Some areas received a year’s worth of rain in just a few hours. Created by @dailyoverview
