Once a week, I pull a lateral move and go for a walk without notice cancelling close-back headphones, and, when taken in in small doses, the sonic assault of the urban cacophony can be almost enjoyed for its complexity, like a pinball for mindfulness.

A must listen for all @edutooters on #DME / #TE / #Gifted #SEND

And that's not just your IQ outliers, smarty pants and clever clogs, but the exceptional athlete, musican, artist or thespian.

And what does it say about our society we focus on the former, not all the latter - to the extend we focus on them at all.

School holidays, as always, are a chance to tuck into @gregeganSF 's work.

This half term, Zendegi (2010). Funny how it manages to be hot-topic relevant to what would unfold 13 years later, eh?

I recently learnt of #TeachFX - an #AI classroom system that analyses classroom talk to give feedback on pupil participation, oracy, use of subject keywords, and analyse the teacher's "#teaching style" to improve it.

It's also willingly bugging your classroom, sending all recorded audio to tech startup with opaque processes, systems, and funding, putting #teachers under constant observation, automating "performance reviews", and #surveillance of classroom discourse.

Explaining CPU exceptions to A-Level #CS Students:

"It's a priority queue. So when I'm teaching your colleagues of Year 7, if one needs me, I go help them.... Another calls, they have to wait their turn... But if one gets a nosebleed, I have to address that first..."

I got a class of 14 year olds #GCSE #CS teens through two's complement, so, having finished their spinach, in the last lesson of the week I got them to make a Mondrian-like piece in processing, to use as a logo for the Teams
