Oddly specific advice: if you’re ever worried about travelling halfway around the world on a plane with your pets… just check out these two goobers two days after their hell flight from Shanghai. They’ve just discovered carpet and birds and couldn’t be happier 🎉

Look, if they’re going to tell me I can’t read it, I 1000% am going to read it.
(And yes I do see the irony of using Audible to do this… four months to go until I’m back in the UK and can finally access a library again!)

Living the dream, two new laser engravers working non stop since their arrival on Monday! First up, a few tests, some art deco style gothic Operation games, and some very snazzy artist statement displays for our IB art exhibition!

Time for @mralexedtech.bsky.social presenting on writing with AI, and is already off to a good start! #EdTechGZ

Next session is a pretty packed panel featuring @drshannondoak.com and more! Love this point from the head of Shanghai American School: “What we’re all aiming for - student empowerment, agency, collaboration - is not what’s measured in tests”

Talking about meeting my internet people, @mralexedtech.bsky.social is here and since we only ever talk online (despite literally living in the same city) he has a weird obsession with me actually having feet.

New obsession: “versa blocks” made by Gary Donahue over at Chadwick International in Korea. I need a million kits and I need them now!!

First #EdTechGZ session with @mgwalchmai.bsky.social - Making Making Matter. Getting lots of ideas for how to adjust our MakerEd programme at DCSPX. Love the amount of integration with curriculum going on!

Look, I'm not saying that I have a terrible habit of working on workshop presentations the night before I'm supposed to run said workshops... but I'm not NOT saying it!

I committed myself to the most ridiculous December challenge: an #edtech #innovation and #makerspace advent calendar aimed at getting cross-curricular STEM happening for all age groups. First up, laser cutting contour maps in #geography class.
Let me know if you give it a go! #EduSky

Having some fun testing the 3D scanning app from @niantic.bsky.social to scan some makerspace furniture in the hopes our primary school students can do their own scans and 3D model some redesigns! Just gotta get better at scanning the gaps too… #edtech #EduSky

Two absolutely top notch books that I recommend to anyone stepping into the #EdTech coaching sphere. Thought it’d be worth sharing with everyone else as it’s recruitment season in the international school world!
Do you have any other books you’d recommend to an EdTech coaching newbie?

If you're anything like me, you collect random articles, images, and screenshots that you're determined to go back to later... only you never do. I've been using a tool called mymind for almost a year now and it has really been a game-changer for staying on top of things!

Teamwork makes the dreamwork in #edtech world. Teachers in Y3 asked about using AI with students. After introducing them to schoolAI, I was blown away when I went into a classroom and saw students interviewing an AI Qin Shi Huang and then writing profiles about him in their books 🎉
