Every act of teaching, whether by a teacher, parent, mentor, sibling, colleague, or friend, shapes how we think, create, and care. The future of learning depends not only on what we teach but on how we learn together. We celebrate all teachers today!

Teachers aren’t just in schools—they are siblings, parents, makers, and mentors in workplaces. Learning has always been collective, and how we collaborate today shapes the future of learning.

This year’s #HomeRiverBioBlitz by @edutabafrica.bsky.social Africa flowed from Kitale, Kisumu & Limuru to Finland — where communities turned rivers into classrooms with #foldscopes, sketches & stories. Huge thanks to all the partners who made this possible! #CitizenScience @inaturalist.bsky.social

Sarah learned Python during her maternity leave.
Marcus earned his MBA between service calls.
When learning fits life instead of disrupting it, extraordinary things happen.

Platforms don’t teach. People do. At Ramogi Institute of Advanced Technology (RIAT), a TVET in Kisumu-Kenya, we worked with trainers to turn
@moodle
into a tool for real skills training. Have a look 👉 bit.ly/4lhh3uV #TVETs #Digitallearning #LMS #Skills #FutureReady #Trainers #RIAT

We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all.
We plant what grows—#Kolibri offline, #Scratch on one laptop, an #LMS built for rural colleges.
That’s not scale. That’s seeding.
👉🏾 What are you planting?

That moment when your @moodle thread turns into a real back-and-forth. Ideas bounce. A new resource drops. Someone says, “Aha! I get it now.”
This is social media too—where minds meet & learn.

We added a certificate.
Learners came back. Tasks got done.
But when the reward disappears, does the learning?
How are you designing for motivation that lasts?
