Interesting bit of extra reading on my free writing topic today. Theorists Ritter & Webber say that wicked problems cannot be studied through trial & error. Solutions are irreversible so, “every trial counts.” Puts project management in a different light. #phdlife #phdchat

A bit of free writing today helped to get things flowing. The inspiration was a prompt about problem formulation. #phdchat #phdlife

Collaboration across services and sectors is vitally important. I’ve found it remains difficult to convey importance as in today’s society we want to take the shortest path and “automate” the work.

Young people with intellectual disability had the same goals for life after high school as most people their age – but they felt ‘stuck’.

"Many felt isolated and in a perpetual state of transition," writes @lise_mogensen (@westernsydneyu). https://t.co/rxuaPmGjy0

Attended a very interesting webinar on future schooling that posed some pretty big what if scenarios. With the current challenges we might be better placed to used what ifs to imagine our way out.

[Wes Heberlein @WesHeberlein]

Totally agree with this. School transitions aren’t always the key times you think commencing primary/high school. They can often be more aligned to age development milestones. https://t.co/4TxVjKKKjt

The future is already here. It’s just need evenly distributed yet. - William Gibson

[Wes Heberlein @WesHeberlein]

If factors outside the school gate play such a role then we need to do more with our policies and procedures in schools to support that. https://t.co/XMOgtSHKws

Couldn’t agree more, the media isn’t driving this in the way they did other social justice movements in recent memory.

The Voice is not a test of Prime Minister Anthony Albanese but rather a test of all Australians — of who we are and who we want to be and how we hope the world will see us, writes @JohnRHewson. https://t.co/DXD2nAPEFU

Wicked problems are such that any attempt to engage with them changes the problem, creating a completely new problem requiring new solutions. - Stephen Marshall

Really excited about recommencing my research student journey. Masters seems like a lifetime ago (7 years so it was!). Continuing my journey now in the doctoral world focused on my passion around education, equity and the future. #phdchat #phdlife

Help to settle in, human connections, programs and interventions of support from the beginning. These are the things we know that build sense of belonging from the beginning for uni students. #universitiesaccord https://t.co/mIOUrVNdI2

“Students will not learn effectively if they do not feel valued, comfortable and safe”. Effective relationships, setting students up to succeed and picking them up if they fall behind. #inclusiveeducation #equity https://t.co/mbhccrhLMS

@BerniMoreno That’s so very true #aussieED

A3. Sometimes releasing the pressure valve rather than always pushing hard gets better than desired outcomes. #aussieED

[Wes Heberlein @WesHeberlein]

A2. Individual successes driven by quality relationships. #aussieED
