Today I did a storytelling workshop for future landscape architects at the university. We talked about how to use folktales and fairy tales in environmental education. They'll be working on a project about a local urban forest and its connections with the community.

I love my job 😊😊

One of my roles at the moment is marking undergraduate assignments, specifically policy briefs

There is little more demoralising in this role than opening yet another #AIGenerated flurb of words with no citations, or fake citations, or citations that bear little resemblance to the text they are associated with

Yes, I am checking

Because its not fair on the #students who do the work themselves

❗2023 survey found children between 8-12 were much more likely to want to be a YouTuber (29%) than Astronaut (11%).

❓ What short and long-term impacts might there be when children aspire to be a YouTuber?

People, I have an urge to write a blog.

It's not going to be commercial, and won't be fancy. I'd want to post text, with the odd pic and video (or embedded link to a video).
The content would be mostly aimed towards high school teachers.

I'm wondering if those of you with experience can recommend a platform - I already own (ha, rent) a domain, but don't have a host.
I'm looking for something that isn't (overly) under the influence of billionaire techbros, that is findable via internet search,* and has an intelligent UI and a decent UX. Or close to that. (

* To those that are thinking, "Duh?", I'd point out that Bing search results, including those generated by DuckDuckGo, don't show PeerTube videos...

I'd appreciate your opinions 😊

#bullying #parents #teaching #Teachers #schoolbully

The kids learned this behavior from somewhere...

This is why bullying never stops. Schools can't punish the parents.

PS - My step-daughter picks on one of the pet cats. When she bullys that cat, he goes and takes his frustration out on the other cat. I imagine this is what is happening in the Bully's house.

6. An excellent way to develop your own #mathematical #positivity is to introduce more maths-positive people into your life. You're on Mastodon: follow some [Hi! Nice to meet you 😃]. Interact with them. Ask them things. Share the mathematical discussions that you have with with your kids (include #tmwyk when you do!)

#maths #teaching for #parents

5. Model mathematical #positivity at times - not just when they're doing homework! Ask #mathematical questions about everything (look for patterns in things & try to explain them, essentially).

#maths #teaching for #parents

4. That's not just in front of your children, either: stop doing it with other adults. Better still, challenge other adults to stop doing it. If you want your child to succeed in #maths you MUST genuinely have a positive attitude towards it, not just fake it in front of them.

#maths #teaching for #parents

3. Try not to fall into (or get out of) the habit of saying things like "I've never been any good at #maths," "I've always hated maths," "I've never seen the point of maths," etc: these are the most effective ways to kill a potential future mathematician.

#maths #teaching for #parents

2. Are they doing something you don't recognise, or maybe you do recognise but never got the hang of it? Get them to #teach you as much of it as they can. Work together on it. Admit that you don't understand it YET but don't use this as an excuse to not engage. Learning new things is a positive thing. Not understanding something is a prerequisite for learning something new.

#maths #teaching for #parents

1. Do they seem to have been taught a different method for something you remember? Not a problem: get them to #teach you theirs, and encourage them to try to understand yours. See if you can spot similarities. Why do both work? Can you find reasons why one may be "better" than the other (there are no right answers here, but just being more familiar doesn't count)?
