My daughter Elya Warwick is fundraising for my son Alex and Brainstrust. Look at their @JustGiving page and please donate if you can. He is simply everything to our family. Thank you! #JustGiving https://t.co/Cfc1bDl3dT

My son Alex last week talking to his old school, Archer Academy, about routes into Medicine. Given what he is currently dealing with, it took serious courage and commitment. Very proud Dad.

@teacherhead Really sorry to hear that Tom. Great pictures….he looks like he was a really interesting man.

@Emma_Turner75 I’ve had more dozens of presentations of mine, since 2004 being used almost verbatim by ‘colleagues’ with no acknowledgement whatsoever. Sometimes I just happen to be in the audience, often told to me by friends. Have to accept that ‘Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.’

@tombennett71 Had you been reading too much ‘stream of consciousness’ Ulysses on the plane? Cos that Joyce fella can send you mad…

Brilliant piece by @alex_crossman on why educators need a fourth 'robot law' to tame the AI 'dæmon' that promotes the safe and familiar, at the expense of the new and challenging, reinforcing our biases and preconceptions.

@DavidDidau You had me hooked with Sturm und Drang in the second sentence!

An excellent article by Carl. I’m in complete agreement with every word of this…

@teacherhead Very cool rode on mower though…by the look of it, to drive when you’re drunk too. That could be why you’ll need to work on repairing the “thruwalls…”?

[London Gifted & Talented @GiftedLondon]

@DavidDidau @stoneman_claire Danger inherent in many books on education - they try to give a cool name to a tool without specifying what it’s actually there to achieve. DD ‘we should encourage teachers to think about the problem they’re trying to solve as well as the tool they’re going to use to solve it.’

[London Gifted & Talented @GiftedLondon]

@DavidDidau An excellent piece from David. About clarity of terms, but the key statement is this, ‘we should encourage teachers to think about the problem they’re trying to solve as well as the tool they’re going to use to solve it.’ Lethal mutation happens when these two things separate.

[London Gifted & Talented @GiftedLondon]

Another excellent post from David. And one I’m in complete agreement with. It’s particularly good on rigorous hinge questioning to expose ignorance. ‘It's always better to know’ https://t.co/SkV336AJX5 via @DavidDidau
