We’ve published an Open Letter calling on NZ leaders to deliver risk-based AI regulation & a national oversight body. AI has huge potential, but harms (deepfakes, gendered abuse, bias) are real and rising. Read the Letter (and sign it if you agree!) #nzpol

Haven’t read the book but I’ve got a 55+ friend that swears by creatine for menopause. With a gym active teen in the house I have endless supply. Might be a goer??

futuremakers.nz/2025/08/10/r... seems so obvious doesn’t it? The need to prepare our youth for the (uncertain) future rather than the present or (as the NCEA changes suggest) the past!

Nuanced article on the intended scrapping of NCEA from my fab colleague @dchpomeroy.bsky.social

The end of NCEA marks a return to a more standardised, exam-focused way of learning. But for some students, successfully finishing high school just got harder.
NCEA isn’t perfect but NZ shouldn’t forget why it was introduced in the first place

First #internetnz AGM and whilst I’m not excited about a 3 hr Thurs night zoom, I am appreciating the accessibility features, and scaffolding and time given to participants as they try out new systems and become familiar with process. Although the “Muzak” is driving me a bit crazy 🤪

Same here. Multi tasking dinner with laptop on kitchen table. As an educator I appreciate the scaffolded “assessment” instructions.
