Hello 👋 how are you doing today

Excellent post.

That song is a banger

Haven't seen this posted on here yet: applications for the 2025 LIGO International Physics and Astronomy (IPA) program for educators are open until the end of January!

It's a fantastic* program for high school educators:)

*(and I'm not only saying this cause I helped with it back in 2019😆)

That’s be incredible

When I'm not deep in the throes of grading and frustrated that students don't just answer the question being asked, or follow the short, direct instructions:

Most of the center staff tell me I should just describe the relationship in the graph. When I explain that I am directly assessing whether students can themselves describe this relationship when given the graph, they tell me to change my learning objective because mine is not an appropriate one.

I have not had a completely blind student in a course using this one yet, and the ones with visual impairments are able to magnify the graph. But I am trying to figure out what to do *before* I have a fully blind student in this situation

Australian students need digital equity guarantee to avoid widening digital divide A new report calls for policymakers to address data and design inequities in digital tools to ensure all students can access and benefit from the highest quality edtech.

First proper post here:

I’m sharing a report released today from Leslie Loble and Kelly Stephens: ‘Securing digital equity in Australian education,’ which we at the Paul Ramsay Foundation have been pleased to support.

Would love to hear thoughts!

Eighth, Stone Yard Devotional, by @charlottewood.bsky.social. To start, this reminded me of The Cloister Walk, by Kathleen Norris, but it is its own work, anchored in local Australian experiences of class, religion and history. A moving, grounded novel, generous in spirit in the face of grief.

Seventh, The Good Earth, by Pearl S. Buck, which I saw on the library shelf and decided to read again for the first time since year seven. It doesn’t flinch from the rampant sexism of the time in which it’s set, and also shows how the effects of a principled life can be undone rapidly.

Over on the other place, on the model of @kelittlejohn.bsky.social, I used to do a yearly book thread. I gave it up this year as that became a pretty useless site for interactions. Going to give it a go here and see what happens…
