There's a quote floating about describing WW1 as fought with 20th century technology and 19th century tactics.

Always comes to mind when I think of digital tech in education..

Fascinating how the challenges of managing Covid-19 for higher education institutions is shining a light on digital teaching and learning and assessment strategies. We knew the SPEEDS project was a great idea but couldn't have predicted how potentially impactful it would be!

Excellent idea and great design from @tlc_itcarlow. 👏

📱An 8 year study found that the amount of time spent on social media is not directly increasing anxiety or depression in teens.

💡Fascinating research that casts doubt on a widely accepted notion and emphasises the multi-process nature of mental health.
