@Sarahflish Could not agree more. The repercussions of this kind of bullying can be extremely harmful to a child's sense of Identity and self worth. It needs to stop! #UoNTeach

'Each person's culture is important; it's part of what makes us who we are.'

An interesting view on the importance of developing your own Identity in modern society, and the consequences of what can happen if you don't. Be an individual, you don't have to follow the crowd. #UoNTeach https://t.co/yh9mYBoQQW

"Fascism is what happens when people try to ignore the complications and to make life too easy for themselves. Fascism denies all identities except the national identity and insists that I have obligations only towards my nation." @harari_yuval https://t.co/8R3EDUmd3q

[Drew Ellem @drellem29]

Cousins (2005) asks 'Is there an elusive quality, a "national identity", which binds us all as Australians?' What defines the Australian Identity? How does this impact the youth of the future? #UoNTeach

[Drew Ellem @drellem29]

An interesting article about seeing yourself as part of a bigger picture, as a 'citizen of the world'. Don't be defined by what you're expected to be. #UoNTeach https://t.co/KvgBcmjMoc

[Identity Theory @IdentityTheory]

"I would like to think of my own status as what you called 'citizen of the world' or a 'citizen of a portable world,' if not of the world. Lots of times you can feel as an exile in a country that you were born in..." https://t.co/FIYhjteHm4

[Drew Ellem @drellem29]

Is our Identity a result of the experiences we have throughout our lives? (Zieler, 2007). Or is it a reflection of society and our place within it? (Stets, 2003). It's important to consider what influences a person's sense of self and idea of Identity. #UoNTeach

[Drew Ellem @drellem29]

In the words of Shakespeare: "We know what we are, but not what we may be". It is our job as educators to help students realise their potential and contribute to their growing sense of Identity. #UoNTeach
