@BobHarrisonEdu Thanks for the retweet @BobHarrisonEdu 🙂

@acagamic I think that this is missing a key underpinning element - the philosophical stance of the research. Different methods can be used within both qualitative and quantitative research. See https://t.co/6cM3vq4T16

@BobHarrisonEdu Perhaps GenAI gives us an opportunity to reflect more broadly on our values and beliefs and how these are reflected in the curriculum as a whole - revising 'Computing' feels like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

@ISC_Research have just published a superb white paper called 'What is #PedTech and why it matters to international schools' - a great summary of key ideas, common misconceptions and a international insights. Highly recommended. https://t.co/qyAPjEqhWU

[Peter Twining @PeterT]

@RichardTeaches @FionaAS I'm glad it made you think about the alignment between your beliefs and practices @RichardTeaches - success 🙂. Any feedback on how to improve the book would be welcome...

[Peter Twining @PeterT]

[Peter Twining @PeterT]

I've just published the first of four videos in the series of alignment in education. Check out https://t.co/xUbPs4BQhT

[Peter Twining @PeterT]

I've posted the first two videos in the Alignment in schools series - you can watch them at https://t.co/FSL9dp0swR
All feedback welcome ...

[Peter Twining @PeterT]

There is agreement that alignment between your education vision & practice is important. However, there is confusion around alignment in education - so I'm working on some short videos that explain what needs to be aligned, common egs of mis-alignment & how to minimise them. 1/2
