With Unis and colleges all teaching online; should schools not consider the same method for at least S4-6 in non practical subjects to lower the risks yet further? We should all be ready for BL anyway. @JohnSwinney @BOCSH_Scot

@Mr_Minchin@GoodMorningMrJ1@barbaragray58 It should. For all the negatives the lockdown brought us, we need to hold on to the positives. Greater use of technology for professional learning is definitely one of them.

Saddened by the loss of Sir Ken Robinson. His views were caricatured by a few, but most teachers, parents, employers understood his key message: that education in the 21st century must move beyond what is simplistically measurable. His voice will be missed https://t.co/Jf2JTgg4T0

Aye.
Quite proud to be one of the contributors (under my other identity) to the launch of this website and the long overdue discussion about #Assessment and #certification in Scotland.
Please follow @examscot. A new project 'exploring the possibilities for the future of examinations in Scotland's schools'.
Looks set to be very interesting.
Don’t we need a massive talk about what work *is*? We simply can’t revert to the old novelty-driven, trash-making consumer economy. Yet that means huge psychological holes in buyers & makers. Unless our systems pivot to care, play, learning. Where/when do the experiments start?
We all need as many resources as we. Here are our our N5-AH Computing Revision sites:
