@BrassAye @UofG_SBOHVM And the sound! It was amazing.

Very strange to be opting in to the @OctopusEnergy demand side response saving sessions after developing a similar system with @CarbonCoop a few years back. Hope the trial is going well on the backend for the octopus developers!

This was a fun evening, I missed the start of our parade though!

[Mr Armstrong Technology Teacher @MrArmstrongTech]

@MrLinnDTEd That's a really nice design

@Sheela_no_gig I had no idea it was an actual thing

[Mr Armstrong Technology Teacher @MrArmstrongTech]

Just had a quick 5 minute play with @Onshape. First impressions are very good - I think this could remove a lot of the pain points in a classroom when teaching 3D modelling in Inventor. Does anyone in Glasgow teach with it?

[Mr Armstrong Technology Teacher @MrArmstrongTech]

@MicrosoftTeams can you please make it so that lists of pupils / team members can be sorted by surname? the inconsistency of list order in different places across the app makes it difficult to work with my class teams.

[Mr Armstrong Technology Teacher @MrArmstrongTech]

Looking forward to another @GCCProbationers training day today. Numeracy is so important in the D&T workshop and I'm keen to get some tips on how to include more in my lessons.

@canva I want to embed a canva presentation into my google site - as slides, not a video. The default for this seems to be a video, how can I change that? Thanks!

[Mr Armstrong Technology Teacher @MrArmstrongTech]

Spent some time cleaning up resources for some of my projects over the weekend. I'm really liking @GoogleForEdu Sites to manage them. The only issue is google sites are blocked at my school! Hopefully my newly registered domain name https://t.co/P9Yy017xRT will be unblocked soon.

@canva for education - can I automatically invite my @MicrosoftTeams class list to my Canva class?

[Mr Armstrong Technology Teacher @MrArmstrongTech]

Firefox with Container Tabs is very useful for multiple Glow accounts btw

[Mr Armstrong Technology Teacher @MrArmstrongTech]

#edutwitter any suggestions on way to get your head around #edutech like Teams, Canva, etc without spamming your classes? Currently working with a team setup with my university Glow account as a student and my teacher Glow account as teacher

[Mr Armstrong Technology Teacher @MrArmstrongTech]

Some nice trainer design work recently @ClevedenTech. Project inspired by https://t.co/ZqwFWCMtCd with help from @RealSethFowler for a great tutorial on how to draw shoes!

[Mr Armstrong Technology Teacher @MrArmstrongTech]

Recent work from one of my pupils @ClevedenTech. He couldn't decide on a colour to paint so added a few different layers... Well done on getting finished up!

[Mr Armstrong Technology Teacher @MrArmstrongTech]

Issue with this is I think my university account will disappear soon?

[Mr Armstrong Technology Teacher @MrArmstrongTech]

A fun afternoon today.

[University of Glasgow Public Engagement @UofGPE]

And we’re off! #UofGARCadia @BrassAye

[Mr Armstrong Technology Teacher @MrArmstrongTech]

Whoops.

[Mr Armstrong Technology Teacher @MrArmstrongTech]

@g_boad @soledadobrien @Breadchick An actual real life dog?

[Mr Armstrong Technology Teacher @MrArmstrongTech]

@g_boad Yes these have been popping up in Ireland over the last few years.
