@henriettacook@EdithCowanUni Fascinating- so how to then interpret 2019 NAPLAN reading data (whether improved on 2018, same, down, whatever?) can it be adjusted to reflect impact of test mode? What if some kids are more used to reading on a screen than others? Does that impact comprehension?
One Nation’s candidate for Leichhardt is in the firing line over sexist social media posts depicting him groping breasts in Thailand, posing with a topless woman and captioning a woman’s cleavage with the words “mmm YUMMY!!!”. #auspol#ausvotes#OneNation https://t.co/Lt8XkmYFxr
@annabelcrabb You distort the story by putting facts into it. You’re demonstrating a bias toward reality, and that’s clearly off-limits for some during this election campaign

@greg_ashman Would a sample like PISA provide same insights of cohorts’ progress but more efficiently, perhaps also reducing delay between test and results being published?
@PatsKarvelas The full tilt negativity and belittling their opponents played super well for the Libs in the Vic election. This is an interesting way to win back the voters who chose her instead

Trying to teach my 5 yr old son to be a good winner/loser when playing board games, mid set up connect4 I ask ‘what happens if we win?’ Answer: ‘we go back to France!’ Well played @HamiltonMusical
@GMegalogenis On a margin of 2% we won’t be subjected to it for much longer. But if facts matter... fact: if @PeterDutton_MP doesn’t launch the most insipid leadership challenge in August, Phelps isn’t an MP and this law doesn’t get introduced. Own the consequences
