Grappling with identifying the threshold that separates people simply eating pizza and a “pizza party” #TheBigIssues

I can only assume Apple called it the QuickPath keyboard because “really really good” was already taken. This tweet comes courtesy of easy one hand typing while on the go.

Why are we still having the STEM vs STEAM debate. Call it what you want, now let’s get on with discussing how we can do it better in schools.

Dr Stefan Hajkowicz discussing Digital Megatrends and the
next decade of technological transformation at today’s QLD Principal’s Conference. #PC2019QLD @stefanhajkowicz

Digital megatrends will profoundly change not only the workforce for which schools are preparing students, but the way we go about preparing them. The challenge for leaders: finding the strategies that sit at the centre of the Venn diagram.

Moravec's paradox: the discovery by AI and robotics researchers that high-level reasoning requires very little computation, but low-level sensorimotor skills require enormous computational resources. Robots can drive cars, but fail to fold a towel. #PC2019QLD

At #PC2019QLD, Dr Jason Fox pushes back on the excuse of being time-poor as a rationale for always reverting to default ways of thinking & doing in a rapidly changing world that we KNOW requires us to make the time for the deep work needed to lean into the “storm of uncertainty”.

An early start this morning to make it to the 3rd round of the South East Queensland Trail Running Series in Pomona. I can *almost* still feel my legs.

It’s 4am. I’ve had little sleep and it is raining. #BridgetoBrisbane

I have had a new laptop for a number of weeks and only just turned off my email notifications. Process your email when you want to, not when you receive one. #productivity #InboxZero

Just checked out the weather forecast for Sunday's Bridge to Brisbane. Hopefully the 80% chance of showers is late afternoon. #B2SB18

@edtechyoda Something has come up and we can't make it. Have fun! #ISTEBallPopUp #SadFace

[Shane Mason @shanemason]

A big few days of learning and networking with other educators from around the world. Thanks @iste another great conference. #ISTE18

Presenting at the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) Conference in Chicago. https://t.co/HnkZp5OgKN

This conference brought to you by the letter queue #ISTE18

[Shane Mason @shanemason]

Teachers spend lots of time discussing learning with other adults and educators. Sometimes we should pause and ask the student. #ISTE2018

[Shane Mason @shanemason]

An inspiring start to #ISTE18. Digital citizenship is not about what NOT to do online, it’s about what you DO online.
