Tucker Carlson questioned why India could not build a single marvel like the ones the British had left behind.
Shashi Tharoor’s reply is a marvel in decolonisation.
I taught on the @NSWEducation for 23 years and separated end of 2022. Was never asked why. Unfortunately many principals create a toxic culture and never questioned. If they do, they get a slap on the wrist. This needs to change if teachers are to stay.
Fantastic opportunity to learn how to incorporate International Mindedness in class activities.. found this thought provoking article that hits all the elements of IM. Dis only one at this stages.
Dylan Wiliam’s 4 Quarters Marking is a great solution to streamlining assessment and reducing teacher workload. This summary is based on @C_Hendrick interview with @dylanwiliam in his book 'What Does This Look Like in the Classroom?’

Ask any teacher and they will tell you their workload has not decreased by 50 hours. Resignations now outstrip retirements. This kind of gaslighting shows a government that is unwilling to back its teachers and need to be voted out. #MoreThanThanks
Collaborative PL has shown to have better student outcomes. Action learning and action research works to improve T&L @ HSC PL to learn High leverage strategies @NSWEducation
Thanks for visiting Kambri this morning, @Atlassian! 🚐
CEO @scottfarkas stopped by on his #OpenRoadOpenRoles tour to talk about why tech jobs are the future and how our students can get on board.
Recruiting student teachers in paid teaching roles is not an adequate response to the teacher shortage. It “has the potential to worsen teacher shortages in the coming years and risks seeing teacher attrition levels like we have never seen before.” https://t.co/twWNM3E401
