@caschat_uk @MicrosoftEDU Not see this before but I’ve now added it to the list of resources for the scheme - thanks 👌🏼🙏🏻

[Mr Howarth @TeechGeek]

@caschat_uk @MikeJonesCSTalk A4: no, I think it’s important - especially at KS3 - to engage student more in the concepts and impact that AI could/will have in the future. Forming opinions on the topic is as important as technical understanding eg. using data sets and machine learning #caschat

[Mr Howarth @TeechGeek]

@caschat_uk We show this video during the unit to spark some thoughts and debate… https://t.co/y82NmExL7r Students find it fascinating

[Mr Howarth @TeechGeek]

@caschat_uk Feel it’s important to examine how AI will feature in society. Lots of decisions to make for future generations. Vital that students see the benefit as well as potential harm, and so they can hope to influence its direction going forward

@louisetharrison @Inner_Drive @researchEDWarr To be fair, I felt a bit hard done by with the 5.. 😆 #musttryharder

[Mr Howarth @TeechGeek]

Excellent end to the day with Bradley Busch from @Inner_Drive talking memory, Rosenshine, the generation game, and strangely enough baby pandas! #hadtobethere #rEDWarr @researchEDWarr

Evidence-based practice across the school by @PearceMrs
Encouraging staff to engage more in research through twilight sessions, enquiry groups, and many more simple yet effective ideas 👍🏼 #rEDWarr

[Mr Howarth @TeechGeek]

Straight talking and inspiration from proven success @BarryNSmith79 #rEDWarr

[Mr Howarth @TeechGeek]

Some excellent shared practice of retrieval, recall and assessment design from @m_chiles @researchEDWarr #rEDWarr

[Mr Howarth @TeechGeek]

What an incredible attendance - on a weekend too! Such a buzz in the room, ready for the keynote speaker #rEDWarr

[Mr Howarth @TeechGeek]

Looking forward to today’s exciting lineup #rEDWarr @researchEDWarr

@ictinfouk We also offer Creative iMedia at KS4 and Cambridge Technicals in IT (level 3) at KS5. These are alongside Computer Science

[Mr Howarth @TeechGeek]

Just this really.. 🙌

[Mr Howarth @TeechGeek]

Trying to mix the delivery for live lessons - especially as we now have 'mixed lessons'. At @ComputingFalli we used @idea_award during lock-down, which our students engaged well with. Recently discovered @codeforlifeuk which we hope to used with our #KS3 students soon #education

[Mr Howarth @TeechGeek]

Managing the many challenges that seem to be common place in teaching over recent months. One excellent discovery has been @quizizz - excellent for #AfL, can collect students' results and best of all the kids love it! #techtips #education #schools #computing
