I wonder if many of the music ed companies I've seen who are expanding into Asia recently have considered the ways in which their curricula may be a form of neo-colonialism?
The increasing presence of ChatGBT and AI have made me focus on what skills I want my students to have, and how they can develop those skills. Really enjoyed this article from @ISC_Research by @KSThakral https://t.co/HdtWPZxfEZ

For #IWD2023 I will be re-reading this fantastic book and remembering that there is still a long way to go before we achieve #genderequity@CCriadoPerez
The attacks on women's reproductive rights, the rise of misogynistic 'influencers'. IWD this year feels less about celebrating and more about fighting back. #Equality#WomensDay2023
'Gender equality is a question of power. The patriarchy, with millennia of power behind it, is reasserting itself. The United Nations is fighting back and standing up for the rights of women and girls everywhere.'
- @antonioguterres on 2023 priorities.

As teachers we are constantly considering the words we use (as well as changing them to fit with the jargon of the times) but it really does make a big difference to perception and understanding #ClimateAction#environmentaleducation
