I worked in retail & hospitality for years. It got me through high school & Uni. If I called in sick I didn’t get paid. If I didn’t get paid, I didn’t eat (paying rent was more important than eating). While staying home when sick makes sense, sometimes it’s a really tough choice.

Digital learning - six reasons why we’re failing - https://t.co/Xo5lUypU2x

[Derek Wenmoth @dwenmoth]

The 6Cs will effectively ‘immunise’ kids as they face the future - we need to establish a pervasive culture of caring in our schools @drjeanforkids #NPDL #NZDLL #DLL @NewPedagogies

[Derek Wenmoth @dwenmoth]

"Every behaviour has a reason” @DrJeanforkids - rather than thinking about what we need to fill our kids up with, we must shift to seeing our students as coming with their own potentials, interests, gifts etc. #NPDL #NZDLL #DLL @NewPedagogies

While the narrative has been around for a while, COVID brings it clearly into focus again. It’s disrupted education more than any other event / initiative in the last few years - let’s use it to advance our thinking and explore new opportunities https://t.co/wjrg4AZCcN

We can't seen to shake the bizarre notion that testing is better than teaching.

We were just having this conversation yesterday!

[Keri Milne-Ihimaera @KeriMihi]

Here’s some ideas I talk about... discussing what needs to be challenged - and changed - to disrupt our mainstream education system more aggressively, to meet the needs of Māori. ⁦@chrishipkins⁩ https://t.co/VvJC5vBVlO
