Learning in Depth: a double post-mortem part 2

Online vs in-class learning A few months back I finished teaching two separate cohorts of Learning in Depth in two very different contexts. Part 1 of this series discusses an after-school cohort I taught at a Hong Kong primary school. Today I’ll discuss the larger and more intensive cohort I taught online and where LiD is going next.

Learning in Depth: a double post-mortem part 1

Reflections on this year's in-person LiD cohort I’ve just finished two separate cohorts of Learning in Depth in two very different contexts. Now it’s time to dig into how things went and how it could have gone better.

Not everyone can march and protest the craziness in the USA, Ukraine, Alberta, or elsewhere. However, most of us can buy a song for digital download. Let's send "The Land of Confusion" to No. 1 to highlight being fed up with impotent and dangerous leaders.

Education Red Alert: Astral Codex Ten Alpha School & School Reviews

A few thoughts - and questions for my visit. These two reviews have dropped like a bomb onto the educational blogosphere. They are the first two reviews posted in Astral Codex Ten’s annual book review, except that this year participants can review anything except books. Everybody has thoughts, myself included. I also have a lot of questions. I will assume you’ve read the reviews, which can be foun…

Hey Europe -- Donald Trump opened 84% of one marine protected area to longlines and purse seines -- but you allow bottom trawling in almost all of your protected areas

Super complex but important work by @anacanadas.bsky.social who modelled Mediterranean cetacean abundance using multiple data sources - estimates of total sperm whale abundance had no upper ci above 5.5k supporting recent 'Endangered' IUCN listing doi.org/10.2305/IUCN... #ECSconference2025 🧪🐋🦑

Inspiring plenary from Joe Roman about 'lifting baselines' and quantifying the effects whale real red ecological pathways have on nutrient cycling and transfer in the oceans - check out his latest contribution here: www.nature.com/articles/s41... #ECSconference2025 🐋🦑🧪

Nicole Todd presenting on yet another decline in harbour #porpoise. Every poster and talk on them at #ECSconference2025 has been detailing declines in abundance and distribution, or dropping body condition. Houston, we have a problem. #RedAlert

Anna Selbmann brilliantly presents her work on behavioural responses of killer whales to pilot whale sounds in the style of an Asterix comic! Who says science can't be fun? #ECS2025 (p.s. oh yeah, you might want to know that killer whales avoid pilot whale sounds!)

At the #ECSconference2025 they lured us out of the poster session with a live portuguese "murinheira", like the Pied Piper of Hamelin. Brilliant!

A lot of prey does the vertical migration thing, so they go deeper at the full moon. And various ocean cycles are driven by solar behaviour. So the connection is indirect, but it's there!

Hui presentem el pòster:
“Site fidelity of Risso’s dolphins along an underwater canyon system”, amb resultats molt prometedors.

Seguim treballant per conèixer i protegir els cetacis del nostre mar.

It's a whale conference. Although lunar cycles have featured as a contributing factor to variability in whale distribution and behaviour. Solar cycles have also been hinted at as contributing to inter-decadal variability as well. You'd feel right at home!
