Thank you to @bridgetmck.bsky.social who delivered an inspiring talk, full of resources and frameworks to give ‘people courage to be planetary citizens, or inhabitants of a biosphere in trouble. Not as consumers for culture…’ 💫

One keynote in at #GEMConference2025 & we've already seen a theme that also echoed throughout #TMiP25: we (whether maths communicators or museum educators) are not neutral.

The conference theme is ‘Sustaining our practice, sustaining our world’.
Final keynote speaker, Vanessa Nakate is asking, “I wondered, whose practice? And whose world? Because in the global south, many people’s worlds are already crumbling.”

UK museum education chat is thin on the ground here. I assumed everyone was still on 𝕏 so I logged in to check and... It appears to be dead over there too. Nobody's on Mastodon; LinkedIn has a *little* & I even checked thr***s so...
Where is everyone?
Asking for a conference.

I've had lots of little conversations about #MathsInMuseums over the last 3 days at #GEMConference2025.
Next up is #MathsConf39 in October, where I'll be delivering a workshop on enriching maths lessons with history content.

Returning home from #gemconference2025 and missed my connection due to my first train being delayed, but I can't claim any compensation because I've already got a full refund because the outward journey was delayed.

Thank you to our first keynote of the day, Professor Olivette Otele, for a beautiful talk exploring museums as a place of collective remembrance through personal stories and insights and the importance of institutional accountability in addressing ‘the wrongs of the past.'

The Museum Ed feed should now pick up the @gem.org.uk conference hashtag for next week: #GEMConference2025
Anyone want to give it a try?

Hashtag is #GEMconference2025, although hardly anyone seems to be skeeting. (Do we say skeeting?)

If I get time I might do some analysis of how many posts have been made with the #gemconference2025 tag over the last few days on each of the main social platforms. My hunch: LinkedIn is most active, but it's still relatively quiet.
So my main question is "why aren't museum educators more […]

I was part of a presentation on museums and home education. Key takeaway: please don’t just give us your schools workshops.
