I’ve been attending Pilates lessons twice a week for some time now. The studio I go to offers various time slots and instructors, but over time, I’ve settled on two favourites: Maureen and Elise. Reflecting on why I gravitate towards them has led me to think about two aspects of teaching. Maureen is extroverted, outgoing, funny, and chatty, and I enjoy her personality even though she’s very different to me.

I was motivated to write a blog post about social media & professional development by the announcement that Zuⓒkэrberǧ made yesterday about how he'll be moderating content from now on. In summary: I’m not impressed, and I’m not sure what it means for us.

Image by Hans from Pixabay I've been using social media as a form of professional development for about as long as social media has existed, so I always have a lot of thoughts about the way that we use it professionally as well as personally. Like a lot of people, I have a love-hate relationship with it nowadays because while there are things that I still enjoy about it, I haven't been entirely happy with the landscape for quite a while.

I left Twitter a couple of years ago when M*sk took it over, and its slow and inevitable death rattle seems to have picked up pace in the last couple of weeks for obvious reasons. Like a lot of people I've been checking out BlueSky, and so far, I'm impressed.
